GE actually sold their entire 3.0.0.0/8 block off to AWS a few years ago.
It's a little awkward since a lot of internal software is still configured to whitelist all access from that space since it was a constant for so long.
- vonseel 7y agoI wonder what became of the Kodak block? Seems GE would find more use/investment for IP space than a failed film company (IIRC)...
