Their status page has moved the incident to 'identified' and the serverHold no longer shows in the whois response

Appears hold was removed about 10-15 mins ago. It should start resolving again as caches expire.

I can only imagine the drop in productivity across the world. Good luck, Zoom SREs - no pressure!
