Abovenet duly advertises these /16's to its other customers, and its peers. Abovenet also blocks all traffic to/from ORBS, due to AUP violations.
If Abovenet considers ORBS's business an AUP violation, why is it accepting the advertisements at all, other than to hijack traffic for the netblock they dislike? This is easily characterized as a backdoor MAPS RBL entry, considering that ORBS was added to the MAPS RBL last year, resulting in a widespread storm of criticism. This way, MAPS can attack ORBS without it being publically obvious. Greetz, Peter. -- petervd () vuurwerk nl - Peter van Dijk [student:developer:madly in love]
