Building a market? You might very well find that a vast majority of the legacy IP holders are mainly academic organizations that were the Internet pioneers. These are non-profit organizations, who helped and assisted local organizations start using the Internet in their respective countries.

We are not against change. We are willing to pay our fair share. We are against unilateral decisions, without discussion. -Hank
Thanks to Internet pioneers, but you should also thank the community for giving them resources at very special conditions until now!
