Is it the case that above.net is black-holing packets with a *destination*

Please tell me how to automatically rebuild an ACL in real time based on
advertisements and withdrawals in a BGP feed, and I'll recommend that
everybody to that.  Meanwhile, the RBL BGP feed only affects destinations.

If so, this would still allow RPC-based attacks (and TCP as well,
if the victim's box had bad sequence number prediction).

Yes.
