I know of at least one large telecom provider which is using 100/8. In my opinion, this should not be a reason to delay the use of these addresses for a legitimate purpose. Rewarding address squatting simply isn't a good thing.
No one is attempting to reward address squatting. The main reasons for this work are to try and quantify the scale and distribution of the problem. I hope that with some more data and a fuller analysis we will find that there isn't anything major to worry about. But if the problem is significant, I'd like to be able to pre-warn people so that they can take prepare themselves for it. That might mean doing simple things like tweaking technical support and fault finding procedures, possibly something else. Regards, Leo
