Yours? They paid you to set up their network properly and you set it up to resolve to Level 3. So if they "unknowingly sent their data" to a third party then it would
be your fault.”
If I was retained by my clients to setup, design, configure, and/or maintain, our client’s networks. I would completely agree with you.
(FWIW, my internal network would not connect to these host even if one of my user’s fat-fingered the URL.)
However, I’m referring to a completely autonomous 3rd party network (Say they type
wwww.omb.gov) Can I be expected to anticipate their user’s/APP DEV’s typos?
