A comment on Some DNS lookups causing 5xx errors due to leap second bug. Parent comment

Re:Some DNS lookups causing 5xx errors due to leap second bug by zerd on Sunday January 01, 2017 @02:18AM (#13294980)
But it is affected by leap seconds. According to the example labeled "Unix time across midnight when a UTC leap second was inserted on 1 January 1999" the unix time went backwards. So using epoch/unix time does not help.
