RIPE Abusing the Abuse contact check
by Nuno Vieira 04 May '21

04 May '21

Hello, This is at least the 2nd time in recent times that we got this behaviour below. I am now reporting the last one that happened this night, however similar one happened some months ago aswell. I believe something is miscoded at RIPE side, but here it goes: Yesterday, Sun, 2 May 2021 22:44:17 +0000 (UTC), i got an email from RIPE, via "zendesk" saying: ###################################################################### Subject: #371145 - Action Required: Confirm Abuse Contact Information (RIPE NCC) ... We have sent a validation link to this abuse contact. Please click on this link to confirm that the email address is valid and close this ticket. ###################################################################### Headers from email received from zendesk: (sent at 22:44:10 UTC) ###################################################################### Received: from x ([x]) by x (mail.x [x]) (amavisd-new, port x) with ESMTP id kNt8Ea9EyGXA for <x>; Sun, 2 May 2021 22:44:17 +0000 (UTC) Received: from outbyoip8.pod18.euc1.zdsys.com (outbyoip8.pod18.euc1.zdsys.com [188.172.138.8]) by x (Postfix) with ESMTPS id 4FYLkn3w7Yz2NlCH for <x>; Sun, 2 May 2021 22:44:17 +0000 (UTC) Received: from zendesk.com (unknown [10.218.219.234]) by outbyoip8.pod18.euc1.zdsys.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4FYLkf5rcyz14K2j; Sun, 2 May 2021 22:44:10 +0000 (UTC) Date: Sun, 02 May 2021 22:44:10 +0000 (02/05/2021 23:44:10) From: RIPE NCC Support <support(a)ripe.net> Reply-To: RIPE NCC Support <support(a)ripe.net> Cc: Nuno Vieira <x>, Member Contact <x> Message-Id: < DO8QLG3D2P_608f2b3a67286_2b2aeb05f3b964287882c_sprut(a)zendesk.com> In-Reply-To: <DO8QLG3D2P(a)zendesk.com> Subject: #371145 - Action Required: Confirm Abuse Contact Information (RIPE NCC) ###################################################################### Headers from RIPE with the magic link: (sent at 22:48:22 UTC) ###################################################################### Received: from x ([x]) by x (x [x]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id 5Em8E0bGU80N for <x>; Sun, 2 May 2021 22:48:32 +0000 (UTC) Received: from pikapika.ripe.net (pikapika.ripe.net [IPv6:2001:67c:2e8:11::c100:1315]) by x (Postfix) with ESMTPS id 4FYLqh5LRtz2NlCH for <x>; Sun, 2 May 2021 22:48:32 +0000 (UTC) Received: from [193.0.1.40] (helo=limousin.ripe.net) by pikapika.ripe.net with esmtp (Exim 4.94) (envelope-from <unread(a)ripe.net>) id 1ldKsw-00010y-CN for x; Mon, 03 May 2021 00:48:22 +0200 Date: Mon, 3 May 2021 00:48:22 +0200 (CEST) (02/05/2021 23:48:22) From: RIPE Database Administration <unread(a)ripe.net> To: x Message-Id: <1840504553.488.1619995702382(a)limousin.ripe.net> Subject: Action Required: Confirm Abuse Contact Information (RIPE NCC) ###################################################################### Context: The allegated confirmation email with a link is only beign sent after the other contact to the LIR has been made, and those allegations are false.

by Athina Fragkouli 21 Apr '21

21 Apr '21

Dear all, I would like to announce a new RIPE Labs article "Artificial Intelligence and Policy-Making Developments – Council of Europe’s CAHAI" published today: https://labs.ripe.net/author/athina/artificial-intelligence-and-policy-maki… <https://labs.ripe.net/author/athina/artificial-intelligence-and-policy-maki…> As the first in a series of articles aimed at exploring how policy-making institutions are reacting to challenges posed by AI, I’ve written about how the Council of Europe seeks to examine the feasibility of a legal framework for the development, design and application of AI. As the series continues, our goal will be to raise awareness of these issues so that the technical community can get involved at the early stages of relevant discussions and provide appropriate input to policy makers. Thank you, Athina Fragkouli Chief Legal Officer RIPE NCC
