QuickPacket Domain Squatting?

I went to cancel my recurring payment for NodeDeploy (Sorry Martin) and I made the mistake and went to nodedeploy.net which redirected me to QuickPacket. I was a little confused until I realized that it was actually nodedeploy.com. It seems to be that this is blatant domain squatting.


My Proof


host quickpacket.com quickpacket.com has address 199.233.232.37 quickpacket.com mail is handled by 10 genesis.quickpacket.com.


host nodedeploy.net nodedeploy.net has address 199.233.232.35 nodedeploy.net mail is handled by 10 mail.nodedeploy.net


Interesting they appear to be in the same subnet.


host genesis.quickpacket.com genesis.quickpacket.com has address 199.233.232.35


Hmm, very interesting. Nodedeploy.net and quickpacket.com mail server are on the same IP! What is the chances of that if it isnt an inside job.


If we do a traceroute on 199.233.232.35 and 199.233.232.37 the both hit qp1.quickpacket.com which seems like a vps node of some sorts or just their main server node.


This is just my 2 cents, but I could just be wrong! @qps are you guys domain squatting on nodedeploy.net? I can't think of any reason for you to have it
