Bill - It’s quite possible that there are already parties announcing that block in locations throughout the Internet, but the vast majority of ISPs seem to follow the routing information from ARIN's peering and contracted transit providers. Ultimately, these matters are resolved based on mutual cooperation and a shared fabric of trust; while the registry may be an important common element of that fabric, that is still not the same thing as a legal right against the parties who participate.
