I guess now I have a reason to finish the install of my own monitoring system for local aircraft.

It's likely a DDoS, so it's either someone controlling a large network or, more likely, a group of folks controlling a large network.
While ADS-B Exchange - track aircraft live might be back up and working,,,,
Their main site seems to be having issues @ adsbexchange.com
Additionally my feed can no longer reach them.
Hmm, the link in ADS-B Exchange - track aircraft live on the top right is missing www. https//adsbexchange.com
The link in the acquisition story that has the www. works fine.
Home - Serving the Flight Tracking Enthusiast - ADS-B Exchange works
https//adsbexchange.com is not working.

Yes you can access the home page but reports are the rest of the rest of the site is down, the host (Pil) just stated that while it started as DDOS it is now something larger.

Same. It's the only site that show our local police helicopters.
New version of ADSBx is online and quickly growing in feeders. Being called ADSBFI and is being run by the same people (except for one) who made ADSBx great, it is available at globe.adsb.fi/tar1090.
For anyone interested in feeding to them, the instructions for changing your ADSBx feed over are here.

Not sure what changed but new shows much less than old.
This is old

Interesting. Wonder if the group that purchased ADBSx anticipated that?
I believe that's because the people feeding the data to the old site have to become aware of the new site and decide to feed to the new site. Or alternatively, people who haven't fed data before need to start feeding to the new site to fill in the gaps. In this type of data sharing, all the data isn't going to be on a new site instantly. It has to grow.
Yes, because it has only been up for less than 24 hours (and still has 1/7th the traffic of the old and growing by the minute). Switching is easier than you'd think.
Wonder how many feeders are the "set it and forget it" type. I would bet there are a ton off feeders who do not know about any of this.
I had to do a whole new image on my Pi since my password wasn't working, hadn't looked in there in two years or more. But I'm feeding FI now.
I had to go in and modify a bunch of files and reboot the pi to get it all updated and off the old site.
