I had heard that Atrivo had squatted some space from Ready Systems
(138.121.0.0/16) that was an abandoned wasteland. I had also heard that
this was brought to the attention of everyone who was squatting that
space.
Now, my information may be wrong, however I consider the source to be
quite reliable.
If my information _is_ reliable, things weren't done behind anyone's
back, and this wouldn't be the first instance of questionable behaviour.
