    That’s mostly because it violates established standards, but you know that already. Lol.

    Hey, for all you know he might actually be the proper owner of that subnet…

    I know if by some crazy coincedence I had that in my subnet I’d be using it for fun.

      I recently had a ticket for a university that had a /12 of public IPs. They gave every computer, printer, etc. a public IP on their whole network. Nothing has NAT. It was insane. They could buy an entire other university building with the money they’d make selling some of that address space down to even a /24.
