Yesterday’s examples

Spread across 5 zones (.xyz 504, .com 2, .life 1, .net 1, .org 1) and 6 distinct nameserver sets. The most common set, at afternic.com, carries 99% of them. 504 of its 509 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.
