That seems to be the epitomy of laziness vs. litigousness.

This probably isn't helped much by sites like completewhois.com still showing these ranges as bogons..

They've ignored all my attempts to get them to update so far.. sigh..

They just need someone using the address space to slap them with a
lawsuit.




I've spent a fairly substantial amount of time over the last few weeks attempting to get ISPs / hosting centers / little Johnny's server in his mom's basement to debogonise my 77.96.0.0/13 prefix.

I can tell you that I've heard no less than four times from networking bods that we're still listed as a bogon on completewhois.com, that they don't think they need to update their filters etc etc.

So while I agree entirely that you shouldn't use these sites for accurate filters, we have to recognise that in an imperfect world there are some people who do choose to use them, no matter how silly we feel it is..

Guess the point I'm making is that chasing down bad bogons is a frustrating enough task without an alledgedly accurate listing site posting out of date info.

PS - if anyone has a networking contact at ev1servers.net , please send me a mail because I'm getting hair loss I can ill afford trying to get them to remove their bogon filters.
