I have been working on this project for well over a month and have run over 150,000 scans of known threat URLs. The site began from an investigation into malware distribution on a corporation's lapsed domain. I have a few articles I'll be posting in the coming weeks on tuxxin.com with my findings, but enough of that for now.

During my investigation, I noticed the existence of the TDS (Traffic Direction System) and kept digging further to find out as much information as I could. Doing this manually was a big hassle as every URL scanner out there uses datacenter-based egress IPs, which were being blocked, while the sites were still serving malware to my home connection. I reported my findings within hours to the FBI IC3 on Monday, June 15th; three days later, a TDS PSA was sent out by IC3.
