There must be thousands of these papers by now (ZMap by itself has been
cited more than 1000 times), but

===== NOTICES REGARDING IETF =====
It has come to my attention that IETF LLC believes that anyone filing a
comment, objection, or appeal is engaging in a copyright giveaway by
default, for example allowing IETF LLC to feed that material into AI
systems for manipulation. Specifically, IETF LLC views any such material
as a "Contribution", and believes that WG chairs, IESG, and other IETF
LLC agents are free to modify the material "unless explicitly disallowed
in the notices contained in a Contribution (in the form specified by the
Legend Instructions)". I am hereby explicitly disallowing such
modifications. Regarding "form", my understanding is that "Legend
Instructions" currently refers to the portion of
https://web.archive.org/web/20250306221446/https://trustee.ietf.org/wp-content/uploads/Corrected-TLP-5.0-legal-provsions.pdf
saying that the situation that "the Contributor does not wish to allow
modifications nor to allow publication as an RFC" must be expressed in
the following form: "This document may not be modified, and derivative
works of it may not be created, and it may not be published except as an
Internet-Draft". That expression hereby applies to this message.
I'm fine with redistribution of copies of this message. There are no
confidentiality restrictions on this message. The issue here is with
modifications, not with dissemination.
For other people concerned about what IETF LLC is doing: Feel free to
copy these notices into your own messages. If you're preparing text for
an IETF standard, it's legitimate for IETF LLC to insist on being
allowed to modify the text; but if you're just filing comments then
there's no reason for this.
