Snort. Your gubbermint conspiracy theories about the DoD address space
dripped of politics.
They were sued because they are a service provider with money and they
are fighting back asking for the community to help out. As William said,
that seems pretty on-topic to me. This community is in a good position
to provide that help which would be of benefit to NANOG in general.
Again, on-topic for network operators.
