I fully agree, maybe even if he insisted that you blocked outbound mail ports just to be safe. Honestly, I wouldn't doubt he found someone offering more cash for the subnet since $150/month on a /21 is pretty damn insane pricing. Francisco

ARIN's always the cheapest option, especially if their new pricing gets approved. I agree, he shouldn't have robbed you of the time you pre-paid though. Francisco

God dammit. This reset has been the most brutal thing. I've never experienced so many legit feeders & trolls in my placement matches before. I'm going to play league till I get gold just for the end of season rewards then likely run off to play Heroes of the Storm. Francisco

What do you expect when your business requirements are that you get a /21 for ~$150/month? He has some very supportive/understanding customers to stick it out for *a month* while you work with ARIN. Francisco

So do the mods/admins see the current sales sections as a problem due to the amount of volume they push? Or has any discussion like that not made it to your ranks yet? Francisco

That's pretty good. Still, frontiernet is going through a /16->/15 every month or two and MS will go back in a month or two as well. Amazon getting their /10 from a transfer threw my figures off some, I had assumed they were getting from ARIN but it's very much possible ARIN wouldn't approve...

It's pretty hilarious if you notice LACNIC makes a mad dash over the line to get things OK again. AFRINIC having a major drop like that is fully expected. Expect to see a lot of hosts setting up South African offices (be it virtual or otherwise) just to apply for space. As @rds100 said there's...

Better than nothing :) I'm waiting to see what happens to all the OVH heavy hosts. Francisco

Honestly that would purge their section pretty hard. There's already a lot of Corporate membership users that are upset about how overstuffed the sales threads are. I did some rough counts a year or so ago and on certain days there would be 40 - 50 sales posts on a day, meaning if you posted in...

Pinned threads are going to go up in price for sure. Francisco

Is there any idea on how much IANA has to give? Fran

So ARIN confirmed that the Issuing emails include both ARIN allocated resources as well as ORG->ORG transfers, that's how Amazon got the /10 w/o it taking off the public numbers. It looks like my predictions for end of February are going to be off, though, so I'm going to owe someone a pizza :P...

I guess I need to decide what options to add :) Maybe Yubikey + Google authenticator would be enough? I can put it on the TODO list after the next major overhaul. So, about that overhaul. With bandwidth pooling well on its way to being merged, we're looking at completely overhauling our IPV6...

It's all the dogs man. Francisco

You're in the UK, are you sure you arent' already behind CGNAT? :P Fran

big corps will figure things out, it just hurts the smaller companies needing space. When AT&T "runs low" they'll just CGNAT their cheapest/lowest plan customers since they likely don't need the dedicated IP anyway. You aren't going to find many brands around that are able to drop $80k to get a...

Well, a /10 would be 4M IP's, so for their sake I hope it wasn't $7.50/each :P Francisco

That's all I can think. Dupont owned the first half of that /8 so them selling half to Amazon would make sense. That's a multi million dollar/stock deal. Francisco

I think that's the reg/update of the ARIN handle, not the blocks: http://whois.domaintools.com/52.95.255.255 Organization: Amazon Technologies Inc. (AT-88-Z) RegDate: 2015-01-21 Updated: 2015-01-21 OrgName: Amazon Technologies Inc. OrgId: AT-88-Z Address: 410 Terry Ave N. City: Seattle...

Thank you to @qps for the heads up: Add 52.0.0.0-52.31.255.255 Add 52.64.0.0-52.95.255.255 Amazon just walked away with a /10. Assuming "Add" means it came from the open pool and isn't a transfer from another provider, this should put ARIN < 0.20 left. EDIT - Not sure. Supposedly the space...
