[arin-ppml] Revised - ARIN-2023-8: Reduce 4.1.8 Maximum Allocation

[Denis Motova]

Hey William,

I appreciate your response and the insights you shared.

Your message really resonated with me. Having been in the startup world and launched multiple companies on a tight budget, I understand firsthand that not everyone has easy access to capital. Years ago, I built my first business using credit cards and sheer determination. It feels unjust that companies like mine years ago could face penalties for not having sufficient startup funds or want to build something that they actually control.

I genuinely hope the internet doesn’t become a space only for well-funded enterprises, as that would stifle innovation and creativity. It’s crucial that everyone, regardless of financial resources, has the opportunity to contribute and thrive—a truly level playing field.

Thanks again for the conversation!

Best,
Denis

Like Fernando, I'm not entirely convinced that reducing the /22 to a /24
offers significant benefits beyond potentially shortening the waiting list.
In my view, a /24 (256 IPs) feels quite limiting. I’d be more supportive
of a /23 (512 IPs), as a /24 seems too small to accommodate the growth\
needs of startups and new businesses.

Hi Denis,

Bear in mind that a startup or new business remains eligible to
acquire addresses on the market even after receiving an allocation
from the waiting list. I'm dubious of the proposition that an
adequately funded startup can afford to wait for addresses to become
available on the waiting list.

The waiting list, in its current incarnation, seems to me like more of
a tool for hobbyists and charities -- folks doing something on a
shoestring budget that doesn't have to be done on a timeline. And of
course folks gaming the system with manufactured justifications to get
something for free. The latter group can afford to wait as long as it
takes.

Regards,
Bill Herrin
