I completely and totally disagree with this assessment. What’s happening here 
is that you desire to not only continue to freeload when ARIN has spent decades 
trying to get you to play nice with others, but you want ARIN to create brand 
new services and then give those to you for free. You cannot claim operational 
impact when you have refused for 25 years to play by the rules.

Bill, I know you knew John and thus you know for a fact John would happily just 
cut you off for this kind of idiocy. Stop playing the aggrieved party. You 
aren’t aggrieved, ARIN has done nothing but bend over backwards to you for 
years, and you’ve done nothing but take advantage of it.

John: I’d like to address a significant elephant in this room. I don’t see how 
ARIN could possibly claim to provide DNSSEC authority for domains where they 
are unable to validate the entity currently managing the domain. Absent any 
such agreement, I think that continuing to provide service to these domains is 
a willful violation of trust on ARIN’s part, and presents a legal problem 
should one of these domains be abused to compromise another entity.

At no time should ARIN provide ANY service, even discussion of new services, to 
entities that 25 years later are still refusing to play as equals with others.
