Summary
Sing Tao Electronic Daily
enterprise legacy
The network of Sing Tao Electronic Daily, the electronic publishing arm of Sing Tao Daily — one of Hong Kong's oldest Chinese-language newspapers, published since 1938.
What it's used for
- Corporate and publishing infrastructure for a news organisation: editorial systems, web properties, mail, and the electronic distribution of the paper.
- A small enterprise block, not a service-provider pool.
Notable
- Media companies were among the earlier commercial adopters of internet connectivity in Hong Kong, since wire feeds and page transmission between bureaus and print sites depend on it. That early arrival is the likeliest reason a newspaper holds a four-digit AS number.
- The APNIC record carries an
UNSPECIFIEDhandle, so the organisation name rather than the handle is the identifying detail here.

Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-27, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
