Why it matters

Provider inference helps describe visible concentration, migration and delegation patterns across the fixed panel.

What visible change may mean

A change may reflect direct provider use, reseller or white-labelled services, registrar DNS, delegated infrastructure or maintenance.

Interpretation limits

Inference does not establish a commercial relationship

The classification may be incomplete or ambiguous and does not establish a direct customer relationship, endorsement, service quality or internal operating arrangement.
