#2The website for the U.S. Agency for International Development appeared to be offline on Saturday, as the Trump administration moves to put the agency under State Department control. - https://reuters.com/world/us/website-usaid-appears-be-offlin...
Thanks! The submitted URL was https://www.usaid.gov/ but since that site doesn't currently exist, we replaced it with that third-party report (which admittedly doesn't say much either).

#4Why don't they just HTTP 301 Redirect to www.cia.gov and give the charade up?
Re: Website for USAID appears to be offline
#5A message stating that the "server IP address could not be found" appeared when attempts were made to access the website.
Looks like they actually nuked the DNS for www.usaid.gov. Funny enough it's still working(?) via DNS for root domain `curl -H "Host: www.usaid.gov" -k "https://$(dig +short usaid.gov)"`

They really stole as much of JFKs legacy as they could.

That's all very well, but now it appears the post title is now editoralised compared to the title of the site it now links, "Website for USAID appears to be offline".
Hate to remind you of rules/conventions, but if you keep doing things like this I'll report you. ;)

I figured linking straight to the site was good way to just show what’s going on and assumed most people interested would understand the context, but I see how it might not have been the best idea.
