[telecom] Q.: Coincidence? or Consequence?

I've read, "DNSChanger Malware Set to Knock 1,000s Off Internet on Monday".

So is that why T-Mobile's WAP/HTML gateways, or Opera's OperaMini proxies, left my T-Mobile handset high and dry while trying to browse to google, and netaddress, and wikipedia, and Opera's own blogging site today?

Error messages all read, approximately, "The server timed out. You tried to access the address ..., which is currently unavailable. Please be sure you have the right URL and have typed it correctly. ... Request timed out."

Just a fluky coincidence? or somehow a consequence of the closing of the FBI's temporary replacement DNS host in conjunction with "DNSChanger"?

Could it be because of the last bullet in this posting?

Only if Google Mini the service and Opera Mini the cellphone browser have anything to do with each other, I suppose :-) . But thanks for the thought.
