maybe some isp's, or even most isp's in some parts of the world, but not
isp's in general.  we see a continuous barrage of rfc1918-sourced queries
at f-root, along with a continuous blast of rfc1918-related updates in
AS112.  i don't think you want to use RFC 1918 as your poster child for
getting filtering right.

route-views is run by competent people, and the networks who feed routing
tables to it are usually run by competent people.  filtering this kind of
trash is probably a normal part of operations for this class of networks.
i don't think you can use route-views as a poster child for filtering having
been gotten right.
