| #4 Can anyone translate this into declarative English sentences for elderly Luddites? You can look up IP addresses your internet provider gives you to see where it is coming from and who owns it. Granted they could be telneting into another sever halfway around the world to thrown off their tracks so you never really know. I think Dale's theory holds water, but I haven't dug into this enough to really see. |

| #3 Mauritius, AFRINIC ," AFRINIC (African Network Information Centre) is the regional Internet registry (RIR) for Africa. Its headquarters are in Ebene, Mauritius."Ebene as a Business Hub. Ebene Cybercity - Mauritius". Big plans for small island nation. Above my pay grade but this appears as learning steps for a wannabe growing influencer. |

| #1 It would be interesting to use Starlink to attack with DOS/SQL injection from thousands of international waters ocean sites. Just and idle thought. |
