I track the “Enabling secure database access” page on the Looker docs, as part of maintaining a Terraform module with the relevant IP address.
Every time a change is made on the docs, I release a new version accordingly so Looker customers can update their security groups much more easily.
However, the last 2 updates have been weird on this doc.
On 7th Nov 2021, the following changes were made:
Here’s a HTML diff version: https://jsbin.com/zoqitozubo/edit?output

On 12th Nov, all of the above changes were undone: https://jsbin.com/vunajiwuyi/edit?output. The current version of the document again includes 35.196.227.117 as an example. Does this mean this IP was not used for 5 days?
IP address allowlists are infrastructure level changes, and customers expect these to be stable over time. Adding new IPs and removing them in the same week doesn’t look very stable - so I’d like to confirm these changes.
