any thoughts on how to fix it? my peers keep sending these to 
me and i'll even admit my customers do too. telling people 
its bad doesnt appear to have an effect, at the small end 
networks seem to collect /24s and announce them freely, at 
the large end i'm still without an explanation as to why 
large networks require so many prefixes - none of them seem 
to comment?

if people arent self policing it seems the only other way is 
for the larger transit providers to stop accepting prefixes 
and telling their customers to fix their s**t. and i dont see 
them doing this.


proxy aggregation if they don't fix it.

Neil.
