reward for ISP's
HMMM.. Ya know if ARIN did this, this then gives them to ability to
"recall" IP space..
If the major ISP's sign on, and a IP block is hijacked and then proven.
ARIN places that block in the BOGON filter the MAJOR ISP's stop routing it
and we solve hijacking, "leaked" blocks and do it from an administrative
body.

The thought certainly crossed my mind, but the overall programme would still
need funding (hence the thought about fines). The situation would probably
be even worse for people like LACNIC & APNIC, who are that much smaller.

Remember - there's also a complete grievance and appeals procedure to fund
(a gigantic ISP might be unhappy at being taken offline from a single
mistake by a contractor; as might their customers!)

The principle's great, but.. lots of details that need to function
consistently, the world over.

Regards,

Ian

It's an interesting idea,  but very open-ended in terms of resource
required.

What were you thinking of as incentives for ISPs etc. to stop the leakage?
Fines?
