Clearly it means to use someone else's ASN without authorization in a  
way that is not intended by the org/person it I'd assigned to.

In a place where people get arrested, charged, tried, *and convicted*  
of lying about who they are in a MySpace profile, I would be wary of  
injecting other people's IP adresses *or* ASNs, even if it seems like  
a good experiment.

Personally, I think there's nothing to complain about here, and I'm  
looking forward to the published results and I'm glad there's people  
with the time/funding to conduct wide-scale experiments...

But then I'm ok with people who don't put their real age in their  
MySpace profile too.
