Do you expect all your vendors to provide you services at a lower rate than "market"? How does that work out for you? Like are CPUs, memory, SSDs, and optics somehow cheaper in your country? If they are, why? If they aren't, why not? I really think your accusations are quite unfounded. There isn't a secret large LIR cabal running the show behind the scenes. NCC bends over backwards to include disadvantaged or less developed parts of the service region through community engagement and whatnot. This is subsidized by everyone through membership fees to the tune of 1/4 of the annual budget.

Learn why this is important<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification> You're still trying to contort the facts just to keep an unfair charging scheme that all other RIRs have gotten rid of because of its unfairness. Just for some greedy large LIRs that want to save some measly Euros when they are making tens of thousands of by renting out these resources at the expense of small, cash strapped LIRs operating in countries with failing economies.

You're paying membersip in association. The cost of your membership is the same no matter how many addresses you have. RIPE does not sell any services. On 5/31/25 10:17 AM, Jean Salim wrote:
Now we can't have a tiered charging because of dutch tax laws 🤦 I thought that I have heard it all. The excuses are becoming more and more ridiculous, as ridiculous as the situation where a one /24 holder pays the same as a large LIR making bank by renting out their resources.
