“Seasonal gretings” In May? plus the from email & the CC’d email?
I think it may be spam but don’t quote me

Based on visual clues including the from/reply email, the CC reply email, the coupon code, the way it is written (although iFastNet writes kind of poorly (sorry)) and a few other things that just seem odd about the grammar I highly think it is spam. I don’t know if any others received an email similar to this, but when I checked my Outlook spam and inbox I see no emails related to rf.gd domains, because that’s what I use. And I think epizy.com is an InfinityFree domain, not an iFastNet domain.
I very highly think it is spam. Phishing perhaps?

It’s real. They send those all year round for some unknown reason. byet.host, byetcluster.com and hostmessage.info are real domains used by iFN, and that coupon code is real (Don’t know if it still works though). epizy.com is owned by IF, but like all other free subdomains, is managed by iFN.
If you have an older IF account that is still under the epizy system, you will randomly get those emails. Try the coupon code if you want, otherwise just ignore it. I’ve probably gotten 5 or so over the past 2 years (I would get the exact number but since they are almost always marked as spam they get auto-deleted)
One way you can somewhat confirm this is not phishing is to look at the body links. They are not <a> tags, and have the real domain (byet.host, ifastnet.com), there is nothing you can click (So no misdirection/URL shorteners/hidden tracker links), and all the URLs are real ones. Be careful on the last point as there are unicode chars that look really similar but are in fact different. always manually type domains, don’t copy-paste

I didn’t know that the certificate I installed before the SSL change was still working. I was seeing if I could re-create the SSL error when I add WWW to my WordPress site, but the certificate I made is still working. Huh.

This seems … interesting. Like that it can actually generate code for you

Just one of countless examples showing that so many people these days are dumb

But I guess if you really wanted to play this dumb game safely and beat the top score then you could attach your phone to a drone and launch it up 1000’s of metres
Or better still just send fake data to the server

Hilarious!
I just love that people were using slingshots to fire their phones into the air

Actually sending fake data to the server sounds like a fun game, keep submitting data pushing the altitude higher each time until they realize that the altitude or the speed required to reach that altitude isn’t right

I just thought of a funny prank to play on a friend
I will send them a picture of a kitten and challenge them to print it but the picture will contain this pattern

Thinking about it, it could as much be about the individual computer or printer as well. Would be fun to find out though lol

How odd, i can traceroute to ifastnet while ping was blocked at the same time. If icmp packets are generally blocked, traceroute shouldn’t work, no? :v
