[anti-abuse-wg] Re: Policy proposal: closing allocation/assignment window, was Policy disallowing spam from RIPE blocks

Where there is apparent fraud, it might make sense to penalize the LIR

I do have my doubts about the *current* need for an LIR, to be frank
(as opposed to an ISP that acquires a large IP block and swips it to
their downstream customers)
