No they won't. The root servers are back up and running normally no,
so caches will be being refreshed as normal. In order to take down
DNS, you'd need a sustained attack on all of the root servers, lasting
longer than, say, half the TTL of the average domain. I can't see that
happening successfully any time soon.
