apnews.org - looks like "issue" there predates me/BALUG using the IPs: Oooops 96.86.170.229 is currently listed in APEWS :-( Entry matching your Query: E-521546 96.64.0.0/11 CASE: C-20 Spambots, zombies, contaminated CIDR, bad reputation provider History: Entry created 2012-04-14 Note the block, and date. I didn't get any of those IPs until 2019-12-12, and I only have 96.86.170.224/29 and of that, BALUG VM, for IPv4, only has and uses 96.86.170.229. Anyway, will see what I can do, but checked logs and such, and I've got absolutely nothing in there mentioning (regardless of case) "apnews.org". Likewise no matches for "apnews" except for some false positives (spam: health@zaapnews.com)
