So? That's why I wrote "If I also own harder.com, you will never know what
happens". If I control both PTR and A records, I can match them on
whatever values I want. And, contrary to IP, these values don't have to be
meaningful - they just have to end on registered domain name - which I
control, so all your complaints you will be sending to the same person
that is responsible for your problems.
