[arin-ppml] prop266 - re-framing the discussion

[Andrew Bagrin]

If the hijacking entity is not and ARIN customer, ARIN likely has a
relationship with adjacent ASN's that propagate the hijacked BGP routes and
can at the very least notify them that they are propagating routes that
have been reported as being hijacked.
They can further repeat the statement with a firm voice, and add "or else"
at the end.

Add penalties and fines could be a way to reduce prolonged propagation of
hijacked routes.
