Indeed... In today's internet, protecting your own box (cp-policer/ control plane filtering) is far more important IMO than implementing BCP38 when much of attack traffic comes from legitimate IP sources anyway (see botnets).
I'm sorry, but nonsense statements such as these burn the blood. Sure, yes, protecting yourself is so much more important than protecting anyone else.
Anyone else want to stand up and join the "I am an asshole" club?
OK, I'm an asshole. I'm sure BCP38 can prove to be useful, but I'll never drop my shields. I guess being an asshole is not so bad given that I have plenty of company.
