Speaking on Deep Background, the Press Secretary whispered:


Hopefully we are the type of organization considered to be somewhat
clueful but we have yet to figure out how to get Arin to remove our swip
info from a former customer's netblock.  It has been years, many many
times filling out their forms and more emails then I can count.  It was
less work to get my /18 assigned then to convince them that I would like
my information removed from a /24 that belongs to someone else. :/

And of course these are the kind of (ex)customers who like to get and
keep viruses resulting in a continuing effort to get our name off their
block.


It's unfortunately too true that often the only way to deliver
a clue by four is with paper headed by:

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
Us
Plaintiff,
v.
Them
Defendant.


or your local equal.


Maybe I can help, I know some folks over there at ARIN and I can call them.
They know that I exist as they have met with me; which goes much farther
then forms and e-mails without contact. What is the exact nature of the
problem and who is the Swip Meister  for the allocation?
