[MUST READ] Weird DuckDNS subdomain takeover

QU⚡CKSILVER · 2015-07-21T04:06:43+00:00

Today I found out that DuckDNS owners/admins had taken control over a subdomain that I registered on there a year ago.. It had been working ever since and many of my clients are still resolving this subdomain, but guess what? DuckDNS has taken control over my subdomain now for an unknown reason. (I assume it is to check if it's being used for a botnet... Don't know to be honest). How it all started? Well, basically, my DuckDNS updater had problems updating the subdomain and it was showing the following error: http://i.gyazo.com/f98a50c9b5404ba52fd6962974b1b1da.png Okay then... I was wondering why it was happening, so I managed to go to DuckDNS site and surprisingly saw that the registered subdomain was not in the list (deleted)... I tried to add it again, but Oh... BIG SURPRISE. Just look below, lol. http://i.gyazo.com/2277e133eda423098b32051b4529b6bf.png After seeing this crap, I was like ''What the heck, how is that even possible? Why would I delete my own subdomain? How come it is n
