interesting, given the other thread here on "IP address squatting":

www.layer42.net has address 166.88.4.14

OrgName:    CARABINEROS DE CHILE 
OrgID:      CDC-38
Address:    2336F Walsh Ave
City:       Santa Clara
StateProv:  CA
PostalCode: 95051
Country:    US

NetRange:   166.88.0.0 - 166.88.255.255 

A few years ago that record had this street address:

AMUNATEGUI 519 PISO 3
SANTIAGO
CHILE

why, one asks, would a provider in California be using IP addresses
registered to Chilean police authorities?
