RIPE policy is not decided by a vote or astro-turfing.

Also what you are proposing is over simplistic and would be impossible to 
operationalise without bankrupting the NCC.

What is "abusive traffic"?

Who decides what is or is not "abusive"?

Who is going to enforce this?

How?

Bear in mind that RIPE does not have the power to fine a member, so that would 
have to change. And I can't imagine RIPE's Board or management would want to be 
put in that position. I know that most of the members wouldn't want RIPE to 
have that kind of power.

Now if you want to run your own network and impose those kind of sanctions on 
your own users you are free to do so.

Also if you want to effect change then you should do research into why things 
are the way they are now and who you are dealing with and where they are coming 
from.

Regards

Michele

Michele,

I have a question for u then.

What would happen if i can find more people that actually would want this then 
u can find people that don’t want this.

Would that make a difference?

I’m very curious on your answer.

Kind regards

“- Change the current contracts with all responsible companies where they will 
have to pay a fine if any of their ip's has been detected and confirmed to 
produce abusive traffic.
“

That will never happen and suggesting it is not helpful.

Nobody is ever going to agree to it and it’s completely unworkable.

Regards

Michele

Good morning Denis/everyone,

I believe that personal data in the RIPE public database is unwanted and adds 
no value at all to the public interest.

Removing personal data instead of replacing it with actual "responsible 
organisation" data is unwanted also.

To me as a public interest user personal data like assignments of ip addresses 
is the same as no data at all and should be avoided at all costs.

The fact that a real person can be responsible for an ip address shows how 
immature the solution actually is.

When i look at the abuse that online services receive my guess is that ~50% of 
online traffic is unwanted!
I'm currently crunching the numbers so i can back my statements but this is 
what i got so far.

Access log for one online service

Total different ip's : little over 11K
High risk ip's: 276 (combined hosting/rdp/etc)
Abusers: 21 (blocked in next update)

In the same period i blocked 173K requests (not IP still need to process this 
part)

This would mean in terms of abuse i would have to send thousands of abuse 
emails for this single service only (this would be just stupid) how effective 
will that be if u send them to a "responsible person"?

When i goto a grocery and steal or wreck something on purpose and get caught 
the police will come and i will get a big fine..... or even jail time.
When i catch an abuser in the Wild Wild West, the internet makes it cost me 
even more money! (shouldn't i be payed for catching them?)

Clearly the whole abuse part of Ripe isn't working and will never goto work as 
long as nobody can be held responsible for the actual damage that has been done.

I would like to suggest the following:

- Remove all personal data and replace with actual data from responsible 
companies
- Change the current contracts with all responsible companies where they will 
have to pay a fine if any of their ip's has been detected and confirmed to 
produce abusive traffic.
- Part of the fine will be payed to the company that caught the abuser and 
other part goes to Ripe for administrative costs.

With the above we move the problem away from the victims to the causers as it 
should have been from the beginning!
And yes the hosting companies will start crying about this since they never 
really had to take responsibility for their end-users and probably only see a 
small portion of the actual abuse since most abuse never get's reported since 
it costs the victims extra money....

If for some reason there is no company behind any personal registration i 
believe the resources should be removed from that member unless there is a very 
goo reason to keep a person responsible (i can't think of any)

I'm not good at putting documents or presentations together (Ripe 84), so my 
excuse for that but i do have the data to backup all of the above!

Kind regards,

Jeroen
