Interesting.  It's nice that they don't use it to serve ads, and I can
even resolve stormfront.org just fine (whose web page is missing from
the default search results for German IP address space).

It doesn't seem to use 0x20 randomization, though.  Perhaps they only
use it when they learn the delegation from a public suffix, to
mitigate interoperability issues.  And it would be interesting to know
if they have implemented it in a way that actually makes a difference
in terms of spoofing difficulty.
