I brought it up a few months ago in Skunkworks, but until the .ke top level domain is signed, you can't really trust the identify of any site under .ke that doesn't use an SSL certificate (i.e. the regular google.co.ke without "https"). http://stats.research.icann.org/dns/tld_report/ I'm pretty confident that Google's systems weren't cracked and that this was something like a DNS attack on one of the ISPs or similar. -Adam https://twitter.com/varud https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson On Mon, Apr 15, 2013 at 9:52 AM, Brian Munyao Longwe <blongwe@gmail.com>wrote:

"Global technology giant Google<http://www.standardmedia.co.ke/?searchtext=Google&searchbutton=SEARCH> has been the victim of a cyber-attack.
