Son of Zorn redux

I saw you blocked IP 12.174.0.195 in Anaheim, California. He is also using 139.104.3.114, which is registered to Disneyland. I have reported that IP to AIV. I guess Zorn is on a Disney vacation right now. wizzito | say hello! 06:59, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

@Wizzito I reverted and blocked that IP. Thank you! EvergreenFir (talk) 07:06, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Also 99.47.2.33 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log), in Pasadena, California (common Zorn geolocation) is worth looking into, considering most recent edit was Dec. 30 and it has been pretty active wizzito | say hello! 07:06, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Also less recent is 76.80.167.3 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log), last active Dec. 23 and used off and on since 2022 by Zorn. wizzito | say hello! 07:17, 3 January 2025 (UTC)
