[arin-ppml] ARIN IPs and Spammers?

Fri Nov 7 06:07:24 EST 2014

Hello John,

" The point is that ARIN is the administrator of IP numbers but each of us
is responsible for the proper use of them. "

This statement is correct, but the main point is, why should ARIN assign
more IPs to the companies who are abusing their own IP Assignments? If ARIN
is the administrator of IP numbers, so they have to have atleast a control
and monitor on new assignment to its clients. The issue is, if a spammer
comes to you and ask for a huge block of IPs, this is a win win business
for you and the spammer. ( specially more benefit for you as an ISP )
because you have got the money from the spammer to assign him the huge
block of IP, you IPs are all in used and you can ask more IPs from ARIN,
ARIN will assign you another huge block of IP without checking how you did
used the old one before? were they givven to spammers? were they abused?
and you have now a new virgin block which cann be givven to another spammer
and you will earn more.

Who will make profit here? Yes, for sure, you as an ISP, the Spammer ...
BUT the people are being abused and getting more and more spamms daily,
hourly and soon secondly if the IPv6 comes ...

My concern is, ARIN has to have more monitor and control of its IP
assinments.

Is that alot to ask from them ?
