And then you have junk like: BGP routing table entry for 64.0.0.0/8, version 6739580 Paths: (27 available, best #27) Not advertised to any peer 8297 6453 1239 5696 15331 195.219.96.239 from 195.219.96.239 (195.219.96.239) Origin incomplete, localpref 100, valid, external which has been around for a long time. And which is obviously not being filtered by a lot of backbones. This could be a tricky way for someone to just use whatever otherwise unannounced space in 64/8, or it could just be a lame router configuration somewhere that the parties involved don't care to fix. But either way, it isn't very pretty going through the list of all the backbones that are not filtering this sort of stuff out and seeing just how long it is... it is truly amazing that there aren't more widespread and frequent screwups caused by bogus announcements.
