Wasn't 44/8 the space for AMPRNet?

I looked it up and they sold part of it to Amazon. Ok. Got it.

Possible that a potential highjack could be a good faith radio ham who
hasn't somehow been updated on the sale of that space? Or more likely to
be a malicious highjack?

    Sorry.  I'm missing something here.  If the hijack was of
    44.235.216.0/24 <http://44.235.216.0/24>, then
    how did AWS propagate a "more specific" than that?
