Bill - It’s quite possible that there are options for legal recourse against a party which routes an address block in a manner not authorized by the block holder, but that would not be the result of any right to the routing table that the address holder has, but instead the result of a violation of an actual statute or violation of contractual provisions between service providers and their peers and/or customers. (None of which equates to "a lawful right to exclude anyone else from using his ARIN-registered IP address on the public Internet.”) Thanks! /John John Curran President and CEO ARIN _______________________________________________ PPML You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List ([email protected]).
