How much IP address space is registered in Estonia, which networks announce it and how well Estonian routes are protected by RPKI — from our own data.
Under European law an IP address can be personal data. What that means for website operators and visitors in Estonia, and how ipaddress.ee handles addresses.
Who runs the .ee top-level domain, how .ee WHOIS works, what it shows publicly and why a private person's details are not disclosed.
Prefix, ASN, registration, RPKI, reverse DNS and location: what each line of an IP lookup means, and which of them are facts and which are estimates.
What someone can really do with your IP address, what they cannot, and what actually protects you: an updated router, sensible IPv6, VPNs and encrypted DNS.
What websites see with a VPN on, how to check that it works, typical leaks, and what a VPN doesn't protect against.
IP address, headers, browser details and cookies: what is sent automatically, what needs your permission, and what you can limit.
Reverse DNS turns an IP address into a name. How the PTR record works, who controls it and why mail servers care.
Which address opens your router's admin page, how to find it if it isn't 192.168.1.1, and what to do when the login page won't load.
Nothing loads, or only some sites do? A short, methodical check from your device to DNS.
No IPv6 address, IPv6 that exists but doesn't work, or sites that load slowly: a checklist from your device to your provider.
The protocol that ties networks together: prefixes, AS paths, how traffic finds its way, and why RPKI makes the internet safer.
