University of Delaware, per this: https://dnschecker.org/asn-whois-lookup.php?query=AS2
So, not on that map, but it was part of ARPANET by the time the TCP/IP protocol was introduced in 1983[0], per this map: https://www.historyofinformation.com/image.php?id=6456

I wonder why there's so many weird domains being hosted on AS2? https://dnslytics.com/bgp/as2 (scroll down to Top Domains)
They are probably not actually hosted on AS2. Bad actors can inject garbage into BGP AS paths, either accidentally or deliberately.
Bad actors aren’t blacklisted for repeatedly injecting garbage?
