Looking for a NetNut replacement

On 2 July 2026 the FBI seized hundreds of domains associated with NetNut as part of a coordinated action with Google, Lumen Technologies, the Shadowserver Foundation and IRS Criminal Investigation. Reporting described a network of around two million consumer devices, tracked by researchers as the Popa botnet. Parent company Alarum Technologies has not been criminally charged and remains listed on Nasdaq.

Not through the seized domains. If you hold a contract, direct questions about credit or refunds to Alarum Technologies, since that is between you and them rather than something we can advise on.

Usually within an hour. Both services use standard credential authentication over HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5, so for most teams it is a change of endpoint and credentials. Country and city targeting is set through gateway parameters, so existing geo logic normally maps across directly.

Ask for measured evidence, not just a headline pool size. Advertised totals count every address a network has ever seen, over years and across every country, so they say little about what is reachable where you need it right now. Run your own test: send concurrent requests through the gateway to an IP echo endpoint, opening a fresh connection each time, and count the distinct addresses you get back in the country you care about. We publish that exact method and our own results at /benchmarks so you can compare like for like.

Yes. You can test coverage, geo-targeting and speed on your own targets before committing, which is the sensible way to validate any replacement after an unplanned migration.
