Yesterday’s examples

Spread across 10 zones (.xyz 1,305, .com 71, .org 3, .info 2, .live 2, .cyou 2…) and 56 distinct nameserver sets. The most common set, at afternic.com, carries 94% of them. 1,302 of its 1,391 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.
