New Incident Status: Identified
The Wink Platform is currently effected by the ongoing service interruptions with Dyn DNS. Notifications and control of devices through cloud based Wink infrastructure will be delayed.

Is it safe to say he affectively had effects?
Or did he effectively have affects?

I read an article this morning that said the evidence pointed to a IoT bonnet, aka smart homes. Explains why Wink would be down. All their devices were probably compromised
