Hi,
I did a fresh install of Debian gnome shell with default settings, but I notice that the system makes daily DNS requests for two domains, Example.com and IPv4only.arpa, the most strange was a DNS application for the domain web.telegram.com, I have no Telegram client installed and I was not using your website so it does not make sense, I want to know if this is normal and common.
Scheduled Maintenance: We are aware of an issue with Google, AOL, and Yahoo services as email providers which are blocking new registrations. We are trying to fix the issue and we have several internal and external support tickets in process to resolve the issue. Please see: viewtopic.php?t=158230

Re: [Networking] strange DNS requests
Example.com and IPv4only.arpa:
web.telegram.com:
It could be that Gnome Online Accounts has added Telegram chat, or that some other Gnome app is Telegram enabled for some feature or another and checking out the address.

Odd DNS Requests that are NormalThis record is used to detect if the host is on an IPv6 only network, and DNS64 is used to map IPv4 addresses to IPv6.
web.telegram.com:
