    I'm glad to hear that you are worried about the GPWA security. Recently I noticed that every time when I visited the GPWA my firewall blocked it due to Rst and Nuke attacks from the following IPs
    160.81.156.210 -> 216.116.200.17
    216.116.200.17 -> 216.116.200.17

    Whois shows that 216.116.200.17 is gpwa.org.
