Because Wikipedia has many IPs and they change from time to time.
And best part is when Russians were blocking a blogger's web site based on IP he switched his IP to a bank's web site and thus the bank's IP was blocked automatically :)
- raarts 9y agoSounds strange that a bank would host its website on a shared Ip address.
