Let us put it this way - RIPE should check those lists for hijacked netblocks. And evidence of other fraudulent behavior exhibited during the RIPE registration process (eg : the numerous fake LIRs, assigned PI / PA netblocks allocated to botmasters with fake whois etc) On Thu, Jul 28, 2011 at 2:07 PM, Michele Neylon :: Blacknight <michele@blacknight.ie> wrote:

Looks like to me, that RIPE NCC should defny compare RIPEs netblocks to several blacklists. This will indicate highjacked or misused netblocks quite easily.
That's out of scope for RIPE
Just because a netblock is blacklisted by a list doesn't actually mean much and as a RIPE member I would be very annoyed if they started getting into this kind of thing
