How many other Belize defuncts do they have?  How many offshore countries
like Belize are there in the region?

Based on my cursory knowledge of offshore corporate registrations in
Belize, Panama and the Cayman Islands, identifying those locations which
are only mailboxes versus actual business office addresses should not be
overly complicated or difficult.

In the era of Google Street View for most major urban areas the initial
search process can be done remotely, such as when it appears that dozens of
companies occupy one street address of a very small office building.

For instance look at the company registration offices, with hundreds of
corporate entities sharing one office suite address, which were created by
Mossack Fonseca in Panama City.

The same principle would apply not just to LACNIC, but also to anybody who
wanted to go in detail through the number of ISPs and hosting companies
that nominally exist in Malta and Cyprus.

A disclaimer:
- Standing for the sanity of the Internet routing;
- Assuming (quite reliably) actual policy violation;
- Assuming good faith

— am I the only one to believe that (given that LACNIC had allocated an IP
block to a company that doesn't conform to the LACNIC policies) what we
urgently need to see next is the complete audit of the LACNIC operations,
so that this doesn't look like selective enforcement?
