The agreement in using the space specifically has you agree you were not using it for commercial purposes.

Don’t be quick to jump to assumptions, we are an ISP but applied for a/24 so that we could advertise it out because we have a large number of amateur radio repeaters another amateur radio devices on our network.

Worse, it looks like ARIN was complicit in the fraud -- encouraging and then supporting the folks involved as they established a fiefdom of their own rather than integrating with the organizations that existed. The "appearance of impropriety" is then magnified by ARIN deeming the matter a private transaction between it and the alleged registrants to which the pubic is not entitled to a detailed accounting.
