The specific actions are not governed by policy, aside from the
references in NRPM section 12.


I’m really curious as to the mechanics of revoking a fraudulent allocation/assignment. Do RIRs have any contractual or other legal power to stop a prefix from being announced by an ASN (and accepted by upstream networks)?

Chris -

    ARIN does not control routing of number resources; that is entirely
    up to the ISP community.  As it probably obvious, the usefulness
    of an Internet number registry is only going to be as good as the
    routing practices of those who choose to follow it...
