Why is the US DoD permitted to own a /8? They are the greatest force against peace and for suffering the world has ever known. Their robots kill civilians daily and they have compromised the security of the Internet for the sole purpose of expanding and maintaining their power. Every ISP has a duty to block traffic to and from 11/8 until such a time as the DoD relinquishes it to the proper authorities for distribution to legitimate users.
- yincrash 11y agoAre you aware that the Internet evolved out of a connection of academic institutions with the DoD's network as the backbone? The DoD was literally the first implementators of TCP/IP as well as where the research was started and funded. Vint Cerf was a DARPA manager.
- dizzyviolet 11y agoYou want a realistic answer? "Finders keepers. We made it." Now, I do agree that it's a massive chunk and it could be better used given up to the rest of the internet, but honestly we should be pushing harder on ipv6 instead. The whole "They are the greatest force against peace and for suffering the world has ever known" part is a matter of opinion and I disagree with that statement.
