    Not true as it’s impossible to measure such a thing. But it makes sense that these numbers are what they are because ipv4 addresses are expensive.

      The article explains exactly what it did measure and what this does not mean:

      Every number in this post describes attacker activity reaching GreyNoise sensors, not confirmed impact on third-party environments.

            Why? Why would I read an article that should be summarized in a headline? I don’t have time to read 100,000 words a day
