I was at a hackathon a few weekends ago, and to my surprise I needed to register a domain name and get an SSL certificate for it.
I thought I was unreconcilably blocked for the duration of the hackathon, as DNS propagation disclaimers give itself 72 hours, and SSL certificates require who knows what.
I was able to get a completely new domain with Amazon Route 53 and Amazon's free SSL certificates in 20 minutes.
So yeah, I would say these blocklists are futile now, in OP's format.
- throwaway_exer 10y agoDNS propagation on the public Internet has been 20 minutes or less for the past decade (unless you set a long TTL on an existing zone record, obviously.) You can get a cheapo SSL certificate in about 5 minutes if you've made one recently, otherwise it takes me about 30 minutes to jump through all the hoops.
