Use wordfence and .htaccess files in the right places and wordpress is great :)

I've had instances running for a decade without issue, it's all about the fundamentals - patch regularly, don't install weird plugins. :)

Maybe you should pay more attention to said emails. Google suggests your "theispguy.com <http://theispguy.com> " domain is malware infested. :)

Hey Ross,

 

You have obligations for YOUR "network". That doesn't relate to IP addresses.

 

My name is still on dozens of ranges that I managed at some point. I get spam whinging emails all the time even though they haven't been a customer for 10 years.

 

You have zero issues here. Simply say it is not on your network and to go away.

Presently a hypothetical question, but I'm sure it'll come up.

 

A friend of mine of a couple of decades runs an ISP in another state thousands of km from me. His business and mine are unrelated, have no common directors, funding, stakeholders etc. Ie, completely "unrelated parties" save that he and I are friends.

 

Some time ago, during a relocation, he needed some addresses, I just happened to have a /24 that I had recently moved services from and it was mostly "vacant" and was fairly easy for me to peel it out and lend it to him.

 

It's still in my name, assigned and "owned" by me, not him, although it is being advertised via his provider and delivered over his link(s) to service his servers and customers.

 

In time to come, if one of "his" users does something that "the authorities" have reason to want to delve into in more detail, and they know that a.b.c.d (being an address in my range "on loan to" him) is the address they're interested in... how does "an approved" party (be that a minister, a policeman, a court or whoever) go about determining who they ask/demand information from?

 

If they simply look up the apnic database and issue a "demand" to me, for example, I will have absolutely no way to give them the data. While I could refer them to my friend, have I got my neck in the noose here too?
