According to RIPEStat, 2400::/12 hasn't been seen since Oct 2023, from
AS13030 (Init7).

I also cannot seem to see any recent announcement of that anywhere in the
usual sources, or my internal data. I would say this was an error on
Qrator's part.

In that case, what more do I must do?


Although it didn't seem to happen here, best practice is to always announce
100% of your allocated IPs at all times.  This provides protection against
someone announcing an umbrella and pulling traffic for any uncovered space.
It's not perfect , but protects against general stupid.
