1.1.1.1 doesn't provide EDNS information, and the archive.is admin has decided that dealing with dns queries without this field is difficult/annoying and simply returns an invalid result.
- StavrosK 6y agoThat's not accurate, they use the information to combat abuse. EDIT: Why the downvotes?
- tomalpha 6y agoTo offer an honest answer to an honest question: Coming to this a couple of hours later I don't perceive what you're saying to be any different to the parent. 'Difficult/annoying to deal with' could easily match 'used to combat abuse'. An assume-good-faith reading of both of these looks the same to me. I'd guess you were downvoted for the "That's not accurate" bit.
- microcolonel 6y agoI think this is more of a “yes and”, and you could have brought it up that way rather than as a “No”.
- andreareina 6y agoDo you have a pointer to how they use it to combat abuse? All I've ever read from the archive.is people is that they use EDNS to return geographically-close machines. Regardless, it's a PITA and I've been avoiding archive.is links for a while now because of it.
- StavrosK 6y agoI'm not sure I should say, but there are people who use legal means to take down their own material and cause trouble to archive.is. The DNS thing is to avoid leaking the servers' location, roughly.
