Tyler,

I’ve been reluctant to comment on this thread, but I’m increasingly confused...

So, the load balancers, routers, switches, etc., that connect those servers 
don’t count? The remote database backends the authoritative servers depend on? 
The other backend and administrative systems, etc.?

But you do consider the corporate email of ARIN and PTI/ICANN (which provides 
IANA services) CII?

The definition of “CII” used here appears to be arbitrary. Perhaps it might 
help if you define what you think is CII and why ARIN and ICANN/PTI would fall 
under that definition whereas Verisign wouldn’t?
