I had resurrected a similar thread last year:

There are sloppy networks out there. If it was a big enough problem all
you'd need is a few key networks drop those prefixes and we'd have
a...slightly less sloppy Internet?

I just fat fingered a regex that was intented to show how many private ASNs

checked the CIDR report, and those ASNs are shown there in a specific Bogon ASN
report, but I’m surprised that as far as I can recall, there haven’t been any
efforts made by the good netizens around these parts to bring awareness to this
issue.
Do we feel that it’s not that big of a deal? Have we not really been paying
attention? Some other reason this seems to be a rather muted topic?
