Joe, If I was visiting your home and I happened to toss a rock through your livingroom window on my way out, would you send me a bill for the repairs? We have no existing business relationship, no contracts in place, so would you send me a bill? Sometimes there are technical solutions to problems but if my actions increase your costs there is also a non-technical solution. One could argue that this whole "CIDR reports" issue should not even be discussed on this list because it is a non-technical issue. If someone else is causing your network increased costs, send them a bill, talk to your lawyer, whatever. But keep it off NANOG. --Michael Dillon (with only half of my tongue in cheek)
