Date fight!

The E-S server is in Finland, and the operator of the
server picks the country, according to the applicable law
of the country. For example, IP reporting requirements
vary from one country to another (how long you have to
keep IP address info).

While in the past, server outages were traceable to DNS changes,
that's not what is going on currently. I've seen no outages to
E-S where I am (Canada), but some other people seem to be seeing
them, and there's no pattern to that (yet).

If you have VPN capability, you could test an exit in another country
and see if it still isn't visible.
