John, What if Acme Hosting, Inc., located in the Silicon Valley, found a niche
offering virtualized servers for Asian customers who want to have their
Internet-based services hosted more closely to the North American market.
Acme Hosting and their infrastructure are clearly in the U.S., but their
customers are not in the ARIN region.
[snip]
The end user might physically reside in Asia; however, if their virtual
server is being hosted physically in the ARIN region, and the hosting
company's offices are in the American region,
THEN the user is essentially "coming into the ARIN region" to do business.
I would make the argument, that these are Asia-based people Doing business in
the US,
by virtually coming and buying product from a US-based company; they might
not be taking a plane trip into the US to setup the account, but they are
calling a US phone number, US-based e-mail address, or visiting a US-based
website.
So while their nationality is Asian, they may in fact be "US customers"
If the customer is doing business in the ARIN region; then ARIN should not be
examining their nationality too deeply, as long as their full verifiable
details are gathered and available for dissemination by ARIN's auditors.
