Summary

The Seattle Times

United States of America · AI-generated

media business newspaper corporate

SEATTLE-TIMES is the autonomous system for The Seattle Times, a major American daily newspaper.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries corporate infrastructure for the newspaper, evidenced by reverse DNS entries pointing to seatimes.com and netnames SEATIMES and SEATIMES6.
  • The AS announces 1536 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes with only 2 observed neighbours, indicating a small, self-contained corporate network rather than a transit or access provider.

Notable

  • Registrants for the two /24 prefixes are explicitly listed as The Seattle Times, while the /22 prefix is registered to Various Registries (Maintained by ARIN) under the netname NET192.
  • The address inventory consists of three distinct IPv4 blocks: 192.251.220.0/22, 192.251.219.0/24, and 192.251.224.0/24, with no IPv6 prefixes in the inventory.

Classification and threat

Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.

Spamhaus DROP

Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.

No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.

Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 455 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-11-14. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.

FBI IC3

No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.

IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
