As far as I know there is no requirement to announce your assigned or
legacy owned prefixes to the world. You have the right to announce them.
I don't think you can legally stop others from announcing your path to
them. Once you publicly announce something, it's out there.
Oh well, maybe I didn't get the original question. I thought the
discussion was about a network's right to prevent others in the world from
announcing/propagating a route to that network's prefixes. Seemed to be a
legal question and the field analogy someone put forth seemed to apply
well. I can't take credit for that as I simply tuned it and showed how it
fit in a historical way. I think a lawyer would probably make this analogy
in a court.
Thank You
