Since at least Thursday evening www.garda.ie has been down. I called the Garda press office Saturday and they were unaware as their default home page is a deep link on the same site. Yes deep links work and i was able to ping it, just someone or thing stole the gardai home page on the www. They are now aware and a garda webmaster should fix it this afternoon. Just as well there is not a plume arriving from Sellafield, us locked in doors with only garda website for info, arpanet / internet was designed for such reasons, when the radio spectrum is electromagnetic pulsed, this is where & why we need a regular web service from an garda etc.
