I appreciate your point but you're assuming that you are the original / sole source. More than one org has been working on this and the recent increase in IP squatting has been discussed on a few private and public lists. All content in this post originates from our own data and analysis. As you've seen we described a second (not previously discussed) case in great detail as well. > If we want to foster a community where people share expertise on this list, fully citing others' work is essential, as in any professional or academic setting. Credit where credit is due, in the blog we publicly thanked one Individual (Job) for his help. To be honest I think this is a great example of how we worked with the community. We've worked with the ISP's involved, shared all our data and worked closely with some of them to verify traffic patterns and figure out why these prefixes were being accepted. Cheers, Andree (BGPmon)
