 * To WordFence team —
 * Thanks for implementing that “hostname” pattern blocking that I (and possibly
   others) requested a few months ago. I can now block those pesky Amazon Web Services
   hosts that seem to be a breeding ground for spammers these days. I was pleasantly
   surprised to find it on the advanced blocking settings today when I went to update
   the rules.
 * You guys rock!
