This looks like a willy-waving exercise by Cloudflare coming up with the lowest
quad-digit IP. They must have known that this would cause routing issues, and
now suddenly it's our responsibility to make significant changes to live
infrastructures just so they can continue to look clever with the IP address.

To be fair, nobody should have been using 1/8 for anything.
Stop living in the 1900’s.  Parts to 1/8 have be allocated to people for
years now.


Copypasta:


I didn't say that.

In case this is a non-native English issue, "nobody should have been using" is past tense, which is to say everyone squatting on 1/8 space for their own purposes because it was "unassigned" shouldn't have been doing that.
