Don't be so sure. What probably _would_ police these willy-nilly announcements, however, are prefix-length filters on the various ISP routers. :-) And again, this could certainly lend itself to folks sic'ing their lawyers on eacvh other in the name of anti-competitive lawsuits. A mess ensues that I don't think any of us wishes to see happen. - ferg -- <[email protected]> wrote: > Another somewhat important point is that we also need to conserve routing entries.

Even now with things as they are you're going to have serious reachability problems if you try to announce anything smaller than a /24. And if routing tables suddenly explode, I'd expect that threshold to quickly move in reaction. -- "Fergie", a.k.a.
