After years of monitoring these “companies” networks I saw 100% malicious traffic (Stark Industries and the like). They literally had no legit customers.
Running out of UK limited companies too, there appears to be very little checks and balances in the UK to see if a company even has people in the UK.
New, by me:
Authorities in the Netherlands have arrested the co-owners of two related Internet hosting companies for operating IT infrastructure used by Russia to carry out cyberattacks, influence operations and disinformation campaigns inside the European Union. The two men were the focus of a 2025 KrebsOnSecurity story about how their hosting companies had assumed control over the technical infrastructure of Stark Industries Solutions, an Internet service provider sanctioned last year by the EU as a frequent staging ground for cyber mischief from Russia’s intelligence agencies.

So, I guess now that Google has officially shit the bed w/ their AI search, this is going to be my new browser start page from now on.
Smurfs Log: Lucky
* Not only was I lucky enough to see a stoat up close today (see previous post), but this afternoon I finally found some of those tiny, fluffy, woolly creatures other people have been spotting. This one was kind enough to bring her two little lambs with her, too.
