Fair enough, but my point was that it isn't the auditors' faults in _all_
cases.
When the compliance explicitly requires something they are required to check
for it, they don't have the option of ignoring or waving requirements ...
and off the top of my head I don't recall if it is SOX that calls for
RFC1918 explicitly but I know there are some that do.
