;. This is simply a fee they charge to cover
their own property taxes. The other extras were similar.
These are not taxes they are required to charge you separately. They're
just adding money to the bill to get you to contribute towards *their*
taxes. I complained long and hard about it, but they didn't care.

l to track it
down. The problem would disappear when we moved it to another IP address.
Because of this, we stopped allocating customer websites on .0 and .255
IP addresses about 10 years ago, instead using them for internal /
controlled access purposes where we could investigate any problems.

t don't exist (but which

Same if you send tens of thousands of TCP SYNs a second so you can
quickly scan all possible ports of hundreds of IP addresses.
If I don't even notice it, though, I'm unlikely to be bothered to object
to it.

_Eyeballs>.
If the IPv4 and IPv6 paths from client to server are different (as they
often are), clients can bypass bad IPv4 network paths to a server if
IPv6 is also available. This avoids some "I can't connect to website X"
support calls, decreasing costs.

that
risk. And every time I see a story like what happened to he.net yesterday, I
re-convince myself that the slight performance hit is worth it, and presumably,
so do companies like Amazon:

ns1.amzndns.com.
ns1.amzndns.net.
ns1.amzndns.org.

And there are lots of other examples. It's hard to say how to fix all
possible cases of what amounts to a human language problem.

Right, but other people couldn't duplicate it. I suspect VeriSign uses
rate-limiting; is it possible that your source IP address is just being
rate-limited?

something in a few egregious cases before realizing that they
explicitly do not see that as their role. I'd initially assumed their
unhelpfulness was gross incompetence, but it turned out to be a sort of
reverse Hanlon's razor.

We saw this problem on December 26, 27, and 28, and are now seeing it
again for the last 3 hours.
