Yesterday’s examples

Spread across 3 zones (.xyz 1,309, .com 2, .top 1) and 4 distinct nameserver sets. The most common set, at afternic.com, carries 100% of them. 1,309 of its 1,312 births came from a single afternic.com nameserver set that carried 10% or more of all births — likely bulk registration rather than many people, though shared infrastructure does not prove one owner.
