Hello,
I have been involved in this project for over 12 years. For the last few weeks I have been wondering what the point of
this is. OK, I have given out credits to students for research, though sometimes they do not even say thank you. The
firmware on the probes has not changed for years, th
The same farming is observed in other AS47583 locations: US, UK, France,
Netherlands, Lithuania, India, Singapore, Indonesia.

Has anyone from RIPE ATLAS tried to contact and ask the operators of
these probes?

While I agree with the sentiment, I am not sure we can be certain th
I would think that type=software && bgp_prefix = same (at least the same /24
and /48) would be a decent method to define similar.

Totally agree with Grzegorz,
IMO we should avoid this kind of situations, there should be filters for this
kind of probes and maybe, if the goal is farm credits, remove the credits
obtained by these probes to prevent these situations from proliferating.

Very weird, as mentioned one message to this mailing list and you can er
millions of credit.
Why would anyone do this?
Could it have some other reason? Criminals trying to find IP addresses that
respond to ICMP ping requests and then try to hack those addresses?

Filtering out all software probes is not a solution because many of them are
good and useful. We should have filters to filter out probes which are useless

seems silly, as all one has to do to get a jillion credits is asl on the
mailing list

You can already do this, you select to exclude the "System: Software" tag

Hi everybody,
While doing some measurement work earlier this weekend I discovered
that there are a large amount of probes on AS47583 that look like
they are being set up to farm credits. With a suspiciously high amount
of purely software probes on the same IP prefix and sequential IPv6
addresses
As part of the RIPE Atlas user interface renewal last year, we released
a new measurement scheduling form and new probe and measurement lists.
Since these changes the old pages were still accessible via changed
URLs. By now the use of these pages all but disappeared, and we'll
