This is a nightmare even inside companies. Two teams set up a default VPC, and one day you go to peer them and find that the IP ranges conflict. At my last job, I ended up using Netbox to manage our private IP ranges alongside our public IP ranges. (In theory, it would be nice if cloud providers offered this feature. "8 other VPCs on this account also use 10.0.0.0/8. Are you sure you want to be the 9th?")
