Hi John, Respectfully, you're dissembling here, offering a claim that's a half truth at best. To secure the community's cooperation at the time, ARIN repeatedly promised that it would not apply any new policies to the legacy registrations absent the legacy registrants' consent. We can both find the aspirational documents surrounding ARIN's creation but the legal documents at no point transfer to ARIN the authority to alter the preceding grants.
