That remains to be seen, especially if the authority issuing the TRO has no jurisdiction over BGP routing. If you find an attorney that wants your money (easy enough) and a judge who is stupid enough to issue a TRO that I can't wear a green sock and a red sock, I will nevertheless keep wearing a green sock and a red sock and the detrimental consequences are going to be for the bozo that issued the TRO if they try to enforce it and not for me.

Exactly, I have one IP address with SBC (formerly Pacific Bell) at home, I'm too lazy to renumber my tunnels if I switch ISPs, so I'm going to require SBC to allow my one IP to be routed somewhere else? Ridiculous. By the way Alex, have you given some thoughts to suing the company that announces parts of your block? Should not be too difficult, if it's not portable and assigned to you. We all like customers that bring lawsuits with them, don't we? And what's the block in question so we can WHOIS it? Michel. |
