Today at work my boss and I found this. Why do so many torrent sites have similar IP and all servers located in america?
>>
I'm assuming because each site is tunneling to a server that is a host closest to you
>>
>>57131015
i live in finland, why would a swedish .se site use an american server?
>>
Welcome to the botnet.

>>
>>57131072

CDNs route traffic through servers closest to you. It's because everyone uses cloudflare.
>>
>>57131113
check OP's picture

>>57131133
see >>57131047
>>
>>57131112
Okay, can you check a website that's not about torrents? Say like searx.ch. Is your traffic being routed?

Why would every torrent website be hosted in the US of A?
>>
The IPs are different for me.
>>
>>57131183
I have checked and it is only on these sites. Other sites such as facebook route to more logical and closer countries to me
>>
>>57130982

Those all direct to cloudflare
>>
>>57131209
apparently they all use cloudflare

and cloudflaire finds it logical to reroute by crossing the atlantic? thats a bit weird dont you think?
>>
>>57131269
it's the same for 4chan.org

RICK.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM 173.245.59.139
RITA.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM 173.245.58.140

4chan.org IP is 104.16.68.203
>>
>>57131298
but this made me realize that a LOT of websites use cloudflare, what the fuck
>>
>>57131348
>Cloudflare was created in 2009 by Matthew Prince, Lee Holloway, and Michelle Zatlyn,[3][4]who had previously worked onProject Honey Pot.[4][5]

>Project Honey Pot was founded and is managed by Unspam Technologies, Inc.. In addition to various law enforcement agencies, the group affiliates with theInternet Law GroupandViaWest.

4chan -> cloudflare -> nsa -> cloudflare -> (you)

>>57131973
Fucking hell /g/

>Project Honey Pot is a web-based honeypot network, which uses software embedded in web sites to collect information about IP addresses used when harvesting e-mail addresses for spam or other similar purposes such as bulk mailing and e-mail fraud.

>the project organizers also help various law enforcement agencies combat private and commercial unsolicited bulk mailing offenses and overall work to help reduce the amount of spam being sent and received on the Internet. The information collected is also used in research and development of newer versions of the software to further improve the efforts of the group as a whole.

>law enforcement

>the information collected is used for "research"

all from wiki. THIS IS NOT FUNNY. I AM SO DONE

>>57132398
Basically any site that uses Cloudflare or even shaddy CDNs cannot be trusted to respect your privacy.

4chan included.
>>
>>57131113
IANA
Internet Assigned Numbers Authority

But the ipv4 addresses are running out. Most isp's are switching to ipv6. Some isp's buy old unused blocks of ipv4 addresses from isp's who don't use it anymore so it becomes more inaccurate. But in a perfect world you ip address can be traced down to who it is sold to and therefor also the country it most likely will be used in.

what wiki?

How can u even have a job being so retarded and not knowing they use cloudflare as layer 1 masking ?

Do you work at mcdonalds?
>>
>>57130982
yeah and 4chan starts with 104 what's your point
>>
>>57131047
Because the ip address is registered in USA but routes to swedish/finnish server using anycast/BGP trickery (CF peers with basically anyone). The IP range is CF anyway.
>>
>>57131243
Torrent sites use cloudflare to hide their IP. Many bitcoin mining pools do too. 4chan as well.
>>
>>57131269
It doesn't, IP adress is just registered there. Do a traceroute and see which IXs are used.
