  Counterpane is defunct (acquired by BT Group in 2006). The domain is still registered and resolves,
  but serves no site of its own: HTTPS on port 443 is refused, and plain HTTP 301-redirects every path
  to https://www.schneier.com/ (Bruce Schneier's personal site). Absence of records below is real
  observed data for a dormant domain, not a gap in the probe.
