FEDEX and UPS Websites Down

Has anyone heard why both FEDEX and UPS websites are down this morning?

Hopefully it's because they both use a common cloud service or something...

Otherwise, if they're both down, probably another round of hacking / ransoming...

Some DNS server must have gone down somewhere. Lot's of top sites down at the moment.
