FYI RIPE reallocated these blocks. Whilst I understand they didn't want the court order, this seems a bit silly, doesn't that now make the machines residing in these blocks special - even if the owners arent miscreants, it makes them a viable target. https://www.ripe.net/internet-coordination/news/clarification-on-reallocated-ipv4-address-space-related-to-dutch-police-order inetnum: 93.188.160.0 - 93.188.167.255 netname: LT-HOSTING-20120810 descr: Aurimas Rapalis trading as "II Hosting Media" country: US inetnum: 85.255.112.0 - 85.255.127.255 netname: INEVO-NET descr: Inevo Labs SRL country: RO On 13 July 2012 19:48, Owen DeLong <owen () delong com> wrote:

Once it is causing a major disruption, the powers that be have no trouble understanding the need to act. This is not veneration of stupidity, it is human nature.
