Europa (RIPE region) seems to be the region with the most infected big ISP (which is not correlated with volume)...
You have to be a bit careful about the underlying measurement methodology. In some European countries, most Internet access offered to consumers reassigns a new IP address once a day. (There are two reasons for this: static IP addresses to differentiate business products, and the drop in P2P traffic after IP address reassignment. The latter is probably not very relevant today.) Such daily IP address reassignments can easily account for one or two orders of magnitude of errors, depending on the observation period.
My question is : does RIPE have a responsability in this topic by not enforcing the «we shall not give you new IP» rules when ISP failed to handle their abuse ?
Disregarding feasibility etc., this would only be a short-term measure because IP addresses will no longer be scarce ressource a year or two, so the RIRs will lose any leverage they might currently have. -- Florian Weimer <fweimer@bfk.de> BFK edv-consulting GmbH http://www.bfk.de/ Kriegsstraße 100 tel: +49-721-96201-1 D-76133 Karlsruhe fax: +49-721-96201-99
