Interesting to see that traffic to this IP addresses is going through
prolexic...
I guess they're considering this as a DOS.

Slight correction for the archives, the trace above was going to
204.11.57.20 (not 204.11.56.20) which is the IP of the NS server
(ns1620.ztomy.com), which also goes through prolexic (see above)

This is the trace to 204.11.56.20 also via prolexic

Btw, one more interesting detail these used to be announced as one /23.
As of this week that's two /24's currently  204.11.56.0/24 (june 17) and
204.11.57.0/24 (june 19)
