[AusNOG] Gazal Telecom?

[Skeeve Stevens]

As dodgy as they sound so far (20 emails off-list with interesting
information about them), I am not sure I agree with your basis of suspicion
Nathan.

I've just moved half of my server infrastructure into Amazon AWS, including
sticking my DNS servers in the Singapore and Tokyo regions (why? WHY NOT!
;-)

I don't think outsourcing your hosting infrastructure is the basis for
thinking badly about people.

That said, sticking in on a $5/year webhost might give cause ;-)
