In an earlier post, Florian Weimer mentioned the following:
My personal problem with these reports is that they are totally incomprehensible to me. Why do you think the netblocks have been hijacked? Maybe the documentation in the WHOIS database is outdated, and Link Telecom still enjoys full control over those prefixes.
If one carry a lookup on RIPE website, and finds erroneous datas regarding the registration of a given IP# assignation, "Who's" HOIS database is outdated in such case? For instance, a false non-existant or outdated email address. Else, a civic address located in a vacant field? Why would you care so much if a network 800 miles from your civic address in another country got highkacked? You ain't a public employee of all RIPE's registered network? The only thing RIPE have legal and justified reasons to ask any network and LIR to whom RIPE allocates IP# is true and real datas such as valid email addresses and full civic location. Anybody has a problem with this? Go ahead, everybody's listening. Thank to read me.
