...and it's not like ARIN, etc., does not announce to the
Internet community when it allocates from address space
which may have previously been listed in various operational
places as "bogon" or "unalloacted" -- they do.
I recall seeing similar announcements on the list from time
to time, suggesting due diligence on ARIN's behalf to notifying
people to modify their filtering. *plonk*

This hurts Ciscos reputation that they are causing
pockets of the internet to not work. Next subnets to get allocated
will increase the size of those pockets and so on. Then the internet
will become less reliable as an end-to-end transport medium, hurting
*everyone*.
