Just to ask, what is the expected effect on DDoS attacks if folks
implemented BCP38?
---------------------------------------
A moot point these days. After all the years it has been out
(15 years: https://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp38) it can be seen
that many are not implementing it. Those that care (NANOG type
folks) already have deployed it and those that don't care have
not and will not. I have met a lot of the latter in recent
years. Maybe I'm getting cynical?

What's going on? Isn't everybody headed to the beach or
the mountains for Memorial Day weekend? ;-)
