That make sense.  Everyone is rightly resistant to automated filtering.

But could we automate getting the word out instead?

Can obvious BCP38 cluelessness be measured?  Maybe as a ratio of
advertised to unadvertised egressing ASes, etc. ?

If so, then if your downstream/peer is even *partially* BCP38, give
them a pass.  They are at least somewhat aware of the problem.

Otherwise:

- Visually red-flag their BCP38 stats/percentage in RADb;
- Send them an automatic email once a week;
- Let upstreams *optionally* not automatically update their routes via
RADb until they call to ask why;

etc.

Can we combat the awareness problem in bulk -- without *filtering* in bulk?
