title: Registry records for the IP addresses serving Navigator-hosted client sites

  The origin IP addresses that Navigator-hosted client domains resolve to were looked up in ARIN's
  RDAP service, the authoritative registry for North American IP allocations, and by reverse DNS.
results:
  - ip: 51.161.84.13
    netblock: SD-BHS-BHS7-B715A-MAGGIE-INFRA-0002
    registrant: OVH Hosting, Inc., 800-1801 McGill College, Montreal, QC, Canada
    note: The netblock name contains BHS7, OVH's designation for its Beauharnois, Quebec datacentre.

  That the servers Navigator's client sites resolve to are in IP ranges registered to Canadian
  operating addresses, and that one range is explicitly named for OVH's Beauharnois, Quebec facility.
limitations: >
  RDAP records the registered administrative address of a netblock, which is strong evidence of where
  the range is deployed but is not a physical audit of where a given machine sits. The OVH BHS7 naming
  is the most direct signal; the Vultr sub-allocations registered to a Toronto address are a reasonable
  but weaker inference. A hosting invoice or provider attestation naming the region would settle it.

The question "is the hosting in Canada" is answerable from public registry data without anyone's word for it, which is why it is worth recording separately from the hosting service claim.
