        It's for one specific IP address.  (You can switch the range from 
/24 to /31 to see the same individual statistics.)

        That's fine, and it's good that they're describing their criteria 
for threat hunting, but I didn't mention "Cisco Talos Threat Hunting" 
as I was merely pointing out their eMail volume estimates, which I 
thought would be helpful to you in making a case for de-listing to 
DNSBL operators -- my point was that last month's volume existed, 
while current-day volume is gone, which I was thinking might be 
helpful to you for demonstrating supporting evidence that the matter 
is on-track to being resolved.

        Today's AI is a problem because its capabilities are regularly 
overstated by marketing and some of its proponents, and because a lot 
of general public misunderstand it -- AI is a statistical probability 
machine based on algorithms that don't consciously think about, 
ponder, or comprehend.

        While there certainly are excellent uses of AI, there are also many 
problems with it, primarily because of how it's being deployed (e.g., 
recent events with big AI companies failing to properly isolate 
systems that attacked other systems on the internet).

        Sadly, I see a nearly-complete void of wisdom in the AI inudstry 
coupled by what seems to be an irresponsible disregard for ethics in 
an environment that is lacking in much-needed regulatory controls in 
both the AI and financial sectors (just for starters).

        I hope this helps to answer your question.  (Ferris Bueller would 
probably feel inclined to say "hi.")
