Site still down for me, fucking no life aspies.

DNS changes may take up to 24-48 hours before being deployed worldwide.

If you ping bitcoin.org, what IP do you get? ( should be 199.83.129.139 or 199.83.131.8 )

Did not you employ Cloudflare or any other CDN to deal with DDOS ?
Cloudflare requires the site operators to give up the encryption keys to (I believe it is) the https encryption certificate. I am not sure if this is exactly correct, however I know it has something to do with something that a user can look at to validate that they are accessing the website they intend to visit.
