+{{< release-note date="2024-10-09" title="Upcoming improvements to user count data" >}}
+
+On Tuesday, October 22, 2024, we will release an improvement to our user count
+data to better detect IPs with multiple end users.
+
+Many IP addresses with multiple end users that previously had a user count value
+of 0 or 1 will now have a value of 2.
+
+If you have applications of the data that rely on user count values with a
+threshold of 0, 1, or 2, you may want to increase the thresholds by 1. For
+example, if you currently consider user count values of greater than 1 to be
+high volume, you may wish to consider user count values of greater than 2 to be
+high volume when this update goes live.
+
+The following services will be impacted:
