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
Not at all out of scope. You are right saying, that a listing does not proof anything, but its a good indication (like I sayd above). RIPE NCC could ask the member, whats going on with that netblock, if they see a listing. I guess a lot of members do not even realize, that their old netblocks are routed somewhere else. RIPE NCC has to check the use of assigned netblocks anyway (if I understand some rules right). It cannot be that assigned netblocks are used by non-members or members the netblock wasnt assigned to ... Kind regards, Frank
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
