I thought the same until I started looking:

Name Server: NS-225.AWSDNS-28.COM Name Server: NS-1411.AWSDNS-48.ORG Name Server: NS-1914.AWSDNS-47.CO.UK Name Server: NS-556.AWSDNS-05.NET

At least for DNS. Data center appears to be Lightedge.

New comment by us0r in "Figma files for proposed IPO"

> The table above does not reflect our renewed cloud hosting agreement with a third-party provider, entered into on May 31, 2025. Under the terms of the non-cancellable agreement, we committed to purchase a minimum of $545.0 million in cloud hosting services over the next five years. This renewed agreement replaces a previous agreement with the provider.

$300k/DAY AWS bill. I wonder what the "non-cancellable" savings is.

New comment by us0r in "FTC takes action against Gravy Analytics, Venntel for selling location data"

us0r — Tue, 03 Dec 2024 19:18:51 +0000

"FTC Bans Location Data Company" no not really.

https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/2123035gravyana...

As I skim that it just feels like a pile of shit that does nothing but create a few jobs to make reports. It doesn't bind the management. They can literally go do the same thing tomorrow.

Oh wait... "Gravy Analytics is now part of Unacast!"

Why isn't Unacast a party? Where is the monetary fine?
