Hern Labs Ab

HERN LABS AB is a Sweden-linked entity best known from Opera Software’s December 14, 2000 announcement that it acquired Hern Labs AB, describing it then as a privately held software development company based in Linköping and focused on cross‑platform solutions.

Public routing data shows HERN Labs AB operating AS205016 (RIPE), with originated prefixes including 77.111.244.0/24 through 77.111.247.0/24 and IPv6 blocks such as 2001:67c:198c::/48. PeeringDB lists the ASN with selective peering policy and “Global” scope, but without published exchange or facility entries.

There are few traditional end‑user reviews tied directly to this legal name; most public signals are security/reputation telemetry around its IP space (e.g., proxy/VPN flags and occasional abuse reports), which is not the same as customer feedback.
