static.wccta.comandplatinumconnect.com. - With 8,960 IPv4 addresses and 14 IPv6 prefixes announced against only 2 observed neighbours, the network functions as an access provider serving local communities rather than a transit carrier.
Notable
- Registrants include WCCTA, Platinum Connect LLC, and Webster Calhoun Telephone Co, with netnames like
WCTA-IPV4-1andPCL-356reflecting the cooperative's infrastructure and associated entities. - The address inventory consists of 23 IPv4 prefixes, including larger blocks like
67.208.48.0/22and numerous /24s, indicating a finely subdivided estate typical of a regional cooperative managing site-by-site segmentation.

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: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
