Dear people from RIPE who are involved in Atlas project,

do you have any past experience to get people (who have abandoned probes) notified over email with nice message asking to connect probes back (or return to ambassador for re-distribution)?

This is what happens when probes are distributed in the wild. In Africa, we have the same problem, now our strategy is to give it to interested collaborators only.

It might be useful to understand the measurement needs of the host, some are interested in bandwidth, others in latency, DNS, etc.
So providing them a probe + some pre-cooked visuals of the state of their network would be a good recipe imo.
