I did a traceroute to one of US West's customers... got some interesting results:

13   206 ms  179 ms  123 ms  gig0-0-0.phnx-sust1.phnx.uswest.net [206.80.192.253]
14  1016 ms  151 ms  975 ms  207.224.191.2
15   233 ms  124 ms  123 ms  192.168.8.1
16   151 ms  179 ms  123 ms  192.168.100.147
17   247 ms  192 ms  151 ms  vdsl-130-13-102-120.phnx.uswest.net [130.13.102.120]

RFC 1918 - "Address Allocation for Private Internets" indicates 192.168.0.0 through 
192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix) is reserved
for private internets.  Hops 15 and 16 in my traceroute show that addresses within 
this range are being used publically.

Did I miss something?  Have the "for private use only" IP addresses now been given the 
green light to be used within the internet?
