I have no idea what the purpose is of those measurements. But user that created them does get charged for the results. And probes return results. So from that point of view nothing is wrong.
maybe it's time to compile a filter list to counter reconnaissance of thge probes' network vicinity, which I don't think was the stated purpose of the Atlas project.

Indeed, we do exclude the "probes' network vicinity", as you called it. At the moment, this is the exclusion list: exclude4 = ('PRIVATE', 'RESERVED') exclude6 = ('LINKLOCAL', 'UNSPECIFIED', 'LOOPBACK', 'MULTICAST') (The above acronyms are defined in the IPy Python module, see https://github.com/haypo/python-ipy/blob/master/IPy.py for details.) Please speak up if you have justification for other networks to be excluded. Note that it's very difficult to apply the above filters to perfection; a sophisticated enough user may be able to find ways around it. Retards, Robert
