Or maybe for some random company who doesn't have the burstable capacity to
handle a multi-gigabit network attack with a couple of office DNS servers.
Or maybe just a company who requires a guaranteed SLA... etc... Had we moved

is not a very nice thing for us to do, so we moved to someone who could
shout at us and we could shout at.
