Have been getting reports of the same thing. Went to the craigslist help
forums where some people there decided to call us a fake ISP because we
don't hand out publics to every customer. They were VERY rude and hopefully
none of them were employees. They said our customers can't use craigslist
if we don't hand publics to everyone. It didn't matter to them that we
don't have enough IP's for every customer.

I sent an email to some admin account someone recommended but haven't heard
anything back yet.

I'd try consider this argument if they at least offer the web service in v6, which is not the case

Would be really stupid if they were blocking all users behind NATs.

BTW if I enter craigslist.com, it redirects me to "prague.craigslist.cz" (makes sense, I'm from CZ and close to Prague), but it uses an invalid SSL certificate.

Welcome to life in the post-exhaustion IPV4 space.

I'd say "Deploy IPv6 and give everybody an address", except that won't fix
the problem, as apparently Craigslist doesn't have an IPv6 presence yet....

According to bgp.he.net and ARIN, craigslist has 2620:7E::/44 which is announced on several transits. Curious as to what they use it for if not Web, MX, or DNS.

Well, for starters, they could put a quad-A in the DNS for www.craigslist.com,
or for the MX for the craigslist.com domain, or for the 4 NS entries for
their zone in the DNS.

Evidence certainly points to them getting the block, and announcing it, but
not actually using it for much of anything....

Same thing as Earthlink, apparently. (answer: nothing. at. all.)

Have you tried reaching them on noc@craigslist.org ? thanks,-nevin
