well done on making it easy for authoritative organisations to block
- Darkskiez 2y agoThis is in the private address space like 192.168.0.0, blocking doesn't make sense in this context.
- userbinator 2y agoMost people who are only vaguely familiar with networking seem to be able to remember 10/8 and 192.168/16, but the 172.16/12 range is for some reason rather elusive --- I suspect it's not as commonly used as the other two.
- aragilar 2y agoI think it usually gets used by VM/container networks (maybe there's some historic reason)? I have seen it once used on a hotel WiFi network (as I was unable to connect because of docker conflicting).
