The topic of the Reddit thread won't really have any impact on anything. That 25 megabit definition wasn't used for anything other than reporting anyway.

Getting too far into politics now, me thinks. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ken Chase" <math@sizone.org> To: "valdis kletnieks" <valdis.kletnieks@vt.edu> Cc: "NANOG" <nanog@nanog.org> Sent: Thursday, January 4, 2018 9:53:03 PM Subject: Re: IPv4 smaller than /24 leasing? $5k aint nothing. I started with less than that (but hung off the colo's in house bw through NAC.net til I could wean off it). I imagine tiny communities (and say on remote native reserves for eg) that $5k additional expense could be limiting.
