Concur. There's also an obvious disconnect here between network engineers who care about operating in as close to "correctly" (whatever that means at the moment, and of course we've debated that for decades) as they can possibly get, and people who only care about making as much money as they can as fast as they can by selling off the privacy of Internet users to the parasites in the data broker ecosystem. ---rsk _______________________________________________ NANOG mailing list https://lists.nanog.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/2OZK6EESAO2DUHKOPCOOFMLY7QLISGSV/
