I thought that would probably work.  The alias bits would be dynamic,
and you're better off not having to manage that yourself.

Any censoring server/software would cause serious breakage blocking
cloudfront, so much of the WWW is served from it, so I thought they'd
leave that half of the equation alone.  For smaller hosts, they may
block them, thinking that the host would ditch any bad clients to get
themselves unblocked.  After all, that's been a common approach at
reigning in spam sources, over the years.
