I missed this meeting/preso when it happened (yes, 5+ meetings ago)

I note the talks about using spoofed source packets to do some
measurement, I didn't see anyone in the video say: "But spoofing is
bad, but you want YOU to be able to do this? what? isn't that a little
hypocritical?"
Isn't it? and why would someone (an isp) disable BCP38 for this sort
of activity?
