⚠️ JUST IN: Germany's .de Internet is Down

DENIC, the registry managing all .de domains, broke a critical security signature on the entire .de zone tonight. Amazon.de Google.de, Telekom.de and thousands of sites are unreachable globally.

DENIC confirmed the disruption on their status page. Started around 9:40 PM Berlin time.

EXPLANATION:
Every .de domain has a digital signature that proves it's legitimate. DENIC accidentally invalidated that signature for the entire .de zone, so most DNS servers worldwide are refusing to load any .de site as a security precaution. It's not a hack, someone just pushed a broken update.
