I would echo Mike’s earlier comment that just because they don’t adhere to a 
policy of ARINs does not in itself make them Bad.  If a Legacy holder decides 
to sell his IP block to another party as an example that does not somehow make 
them bad.  By your definition it may make them an Actor but not necessarily a 
Bad Actor.  My two cents.

Changing the definition of bad actors can, indeed, make a bunch of bad actors 
now fit the reformed definition of “good companies”, but similarly, repealing 
laws against bank robbers would then make bank robbers no longer defined as 
criminals.

Owen -

Let's save use of the term "criminal" for those actually violating public laws; 
the phrase
"bad actors" applies quite well to those who violate community expectations, 
whether
that be address policy, handling unsolicited bulk emailers,  route 
deaggregators, etc.

Thanks!
