Now, back to ARIN:  is Linode doing it right?  Is vr.org doing it
wrong?  Are they both doing it correct, or are they both wrong?


ARIN Policies do require Linode to SWIP their customer allocations,
so the fact that they are not doing so is actually a violation of policy.

Linode (and VR) probably shouldn't SWIP their datacenter blocks,
but this isn't really covered in policy one way or the other.

Anyhow.  How do I get my geoloc to show Fremont, CA?  And to have yelp
stop returning 403 Forbidden?

Get Linode to SWIP your blocks for starters.
