Hijacked or not, does everyone (Every network on planet earth) care? RIPE's regulation simply state that the registation needs to be exact and accurate. Does anybody has a problem with this? 'Coze the only logical reason there would be to condemn this is that the individual who wants keep his or her indentification concealed is to perpetrate abuses, frauds and who knows some terrorism. If anyone cannot be recognized as part of the humankind on this planet, there's gotta be a reason to this! Anyhow, in do time, as a network is reconized as an abuser, the best that can be done is to blacklist the whole IP# block numbers. Refuse connection! And don't count on either ARIN, RIPE of the other registry bases. It would be too costly to ask them to do that. There are many, many other means to shut down or bare an IP Block number. As long as RIPE, ARIN and the other registry data bases gives us the right registry for a given IP# allocation, the abusing network can be track down. That's what's the RIPE authority is for? I'll cope with that!

I think it is out of scope
It is a slippery slope
Next you'll have people demanding that RIPE check what content is published on IP blocks ..
Good idea.
Other organisations are monitoring content too to prevent abuse, like search engines that do not even want results from hacked sites in their index.
RIPE is defny responsible for any abuse, whatever it is.
Lets have an example: A highjacker is using some netblocks to attack a big bank. They are flodded from this IP block and the attacker also sets up a lot of pishing servers using these IPs.
Will RIPE ask the LIR about whats going on with his assignment ? Will RIPE deroute this netblock at all ? Just after the bank complaints ? After somebody complains to RIPE that there are pishing servers on this netblock ?
What will happen ?
Cant be, that RIPE is doing nothing (to my opinion). And it would be very interesting what RIPE would do right now in this scenario. Who knows more ?
Kind regards, Frank
You are right saying, that a listing does not proof anything, but its a good indication (like I sayd above).
Not necessarily.
There are a multitude of reasons why an IP block can get listed - while it *might* be an indicator that you or I can use for our own *private* networks, it is not something that an organization like RIPE should be doing, as there is absolutely no standard or certification of DNS blacklists.
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).
No - the "usage" is related to the assignment rules
It cannot be that assigned netblocks are used by non-members or members the netblock wasnt assigned to ā¦
Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean here
