@domi @nay thanks haha! i have been trying to get an e164.arpa domain for quite some time now (the "normal" way, actually found someone who was willing to register an 9.4.e164.arpa (+49, Germany) domain a few days ago!)
but i just randomly thought "hey, maybe it's possible to just take over the e164.arpa domain of an entire country - i checked, and it worked! i actually took over 6.4.2.e164.arpa and 7.4.2.e164.arpa as well
i reported all of this already
but since these were completely unused, i don't see an issue with me having a little fun with one of the domains

@dam@0.9.2.e164.arpa @domi@donotsta.re you might notice some noise if you have DNS logs enabled - seemingly legacy systems still trying to communicate through it. but realistically it's not like they would've worked regardless as long as you don't reply to these queries

dam@0.9.2.e164.arpa

@nay @domi hah
i have actually been logging them myself (that's why i moved it to my own dns infrastructure yesterday), and in over 24h i haven't received an actual NAPTR request on any of the domains (that's the type used in these kinds of queries)

@domi @dam @nay really wish isps like that existed in canada... any time this one mentions how much it has to pay for relatively basic internet service to people outside the country they always freak out lol
(...it's $65/month for 10/50 with no ipv6. gotta love duopolies)

@nay @dam @shuppy OMG that is absurd. Thanks!

domi@donotsta.re

@aqua @dam @nay fwiw bgp.wtf isn't cheap either, but the service quality is excellent and there's nobody else that provides all of this (in Warsaw)

plus, well. infra channel is on IRC. it's just comfy all around. worth every penny

@wolf480pl @dam they snatched the nameserver's domain (enum.org.uk) so they allocated it to themselves

alyx@frogs.lgbt

@dam do you plan to support ipv6

@dam hold on, I’m a tad confused. Is this data being sent over a phone line?
