No, it's not just you.*

Large swaths of the United States experienced internet connection problems today, with several major ISPs apparently affected. Comcast, Verizon, and AT&T all appeared to have issues, with Comcast blaming the outage (https://twitter.com/comcastcares/status/927622315734589440) on an "external network issue."

This outage falls just after the one-year anniversary (http://mashable.com/2016/10/21/sites-across-internet-struggle-after-cyberattack/) of a major DDOS attack on Dyn that crippled the internet for a day in October of 2016.*

Looks like it's impacting multiple major telecom providers, not just #Comcast (https://twitter.com/hashtag/Comcast?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw), including #Verizon (https://twitter.com/hashtag/Verizon?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw), #ATT (https://twitter.com/hashtag/ATT?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw), and #Spectrum (https://twitter.com/hashtag/Spectrum?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) pic.twitter.com/ApSAvvRunm (https://t.co/ApSAvvRunm)
