Fuck it. I've just implemented the rage4 API with my automatic DNS failover application.

* Custom Reverse DNS for IPs.

Easily the most robust and the fastest (top 3) Anycast DNS around.

I wouldn't be too upset for having my DNS account which i am not using terminated.

People who currently have zones will have to move to Rage4 direct or use Prometeus' own DNS system by September this year.

I've mentioned Zilore (still free?) multiple times before. GeoDNS + Fallover and whatever stuff. Anycast. Go check them out!

I'm hosting my dns elsewhere, I had zero zones on my rage4dns account

prometeus themselves will not support services like GeoDNS or failover, just simple DNS.

Pretty interesting:

Don't rely on other people for your DNS, doubly so when it's "for free".

Correct me if I'm wrong, you have no active paid services with them and you are surprised/whining that they eventually shut off DNS which you've neglected to move somewhere else?

I only came to know about this issue today when google removed half of my site pages from their search results and i was like WTH happened? When i fetched the site as google bot through Webmaster Tool

Just found that CloudFlare posted about this issue on their website last week at https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200171976-Error-1000-DNS-points-to-prohibited-IP

When i disable Cloudflare proxy/cdn and just use dns only mode thn google is able to fetch the pages without any issue.

I can have network working on Windows, but you assign the IP/DNS manually. It works great, but problem is, I can easily change the IP to another one from the subnet and it will work again with the new

Then you add the backup mx to the dns configuration but with a higher numerical priority number than the primary mx.
