You are presuming that people are doing IP assignment lookups from the
affected network, sometimes just an affected server. Further more, you
presume that people do IP assignment lookups at all. Clueless people often
don't even know what ARIN is. Just the other day I was asked what Aaron had
to do with the problem I was describing.
