Likely a transient issues. http.debian.net will redirect to what it determines is your nearest geographical mirror. I'll try and collect a number of these issues and talk to the http.debian.net maintainer whether there's anything that can be done to make it less likely users encounter them. To totally avoid any potential problems from this redirection service, you could replace http.debian.net in /etc/apt/sources.list with your closest mirror http://www.debian.org/mirror/list

Perhaps related to the recent heat wave and storms affecting the east cost US? I'll go ahead and hard code one that works. Hopefully we can figure out a better solution. Thanks.

Raphael Geissert who runs http.debian.net has implemented extra monitoring to help avoid this sort of issue. http://rgeissert.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/updates-on-httpdebiannet.html

Closing.
