It was me who posted the recent thing about the response from Validity saying they are removing the option to add IPv6 ranges. Your questions are answered in that thread but I'll summarise: - Validity consider it an error that they are asking for IPv6 addresses/netblocks and they intend to remove that part of the interface. - That part of their interface doesn't work. I reported this to them a month ago and it was old news then, apparently. - Even if that ;part of their web site did work, they do not have any IPv6 DNS servers, so will never see a query from an IPv6 address. Therefore there is no current value in supplying that information to them anyway. - Although it may appear that their DNS servers have IPv6 addresses, you are looking at AWS DNS servers. The actual DNS lists are delegated to servers which are IPv4-only. Validity say they do not intend to support IPv6 here. Maybe they own shares in an IPv4 broker? I'm afraid I do not know the answers to your other questions about Validity's services. I myself only decided to try registering a user because I got a "blocked" response. This was confusing and against my expectations of our query volume, but I thought what the hell, I'll register anyway. Between their broken web site, information-free corporate web site, and a slightly baffling desire to cling to IPv4 I don't have high confidence that any part of their services work properly.
