The same way the existence of laws stating certain practices are wrong and forbidden doesn't stop people from committing crimes.

Jordi,

As I´ve mentioned @ LACNIC discussions regarding this policy: the existence of a statement in ARIN policy manual saying that something like this is "bad" is not going to make anyone go to do it in another place. And so, it's not going to prevent any BGP bad practice (not the ones made on purpose neither the accidental ones).

Regards,
Nicolas

        The only potential issue is that the policy adopted in each
    region must
        apply to ALL BGP Hijacking, not just the region involved.
    Otherwise the
        bad actors will simply choose to hijack numbers in a different
    region to
        avoid the policy.

    And that's probably a good thing. If one region doesn't adopt this
    policy, versus others adopting it, then hijackers will try to
    operate under that region, and I guess that means the "quality" of
    service of the regions that don't adopt it decreases, and that may
    turn the community into a different view of it.

        Also, I assume we are mostly discussing hijacking of IPv4
    resources, much
        of which are clearly related to their short supply.  I am
    unaware of any
        real effort currently being made to hijack IPv6 resources.

    The proposal covers "any" resource hijacking (IPv4, IPv6 and ASN).
    The fact that IPv6 is not being hijacked know, doesn't means that
    we can't prevent it to be covered by a policy proposal.
