So I get what you're saying. And you're right. You and I petition ARIN, attest that we forecast to use a /X, we're lying, and we transfer it out of the region and

ARIN is done with it - ARIN has no control over the block transferred out.


That is true today. ARIN does not have any control over how IP blocks are used (or transferred) today.

Which is why I'm supportive of this policy... it makes the right thing (recording a transfer properly in the ARIN database) happen.


The disagreement I have with this view is that I don't want us making policy that

punishes the 99.9% of people who are telling the truth and just want to run their

network, so that we can somehow "catch" the 0.01% of the scammers. I prefer

making policy which works well for bona fide network operators. People will always

lie, and I do not believe it’s ARIN’s job to catch that.


Also agree... writing policy to try to block the wrongdoers always makes it harder for the legitimate users... which is the group ARIN should be supporting.
