Yesterday’s examples

Spread across 16 zones (.com 291, .org 6, .xyz 3, .online 2, .app 2, .info 2…) and 40 distinct nameserver sets. The most common set, at openprovider.nl, carries 82% of them. 82% of them share one openprovider.nl nameserver set — likely bulk registration rather than many people, though shared infrastructure does not prove one owner.

At most 6 examples, printed as text and never linked. A name appearing here says nothing about its owner or its content.
