Interpretation
How to read this signal

What change may indicate
DNS provider movement may reflect direct provider use, reseller use, white-labelled services, delegated infrastructure, registrar DNS changes or operational maintenance.
Limits
What it cannot tell us
DNS provider inference is a best-effort classification. It cannot prove a direct customer relationship, endorsement, service quality, safety, risk, compromise or intent.
