My theory - not yet backed by data - is that probably most spoofed traffic =
these days does in fact emanate from IDC networks, and that a non-trivial p=
roportion of same emanates from a relatively small number of such networks.
In many cases, it's possible to put 'naked' hosts on home broadband connect=

and access networks don't run any form of anti-spoofing, is an open questio=
n.
