I mean if you own it, it's your money. But I think I anyone else would have a difficult time making a business or technical case to justify setting up and maintaining a large scale echo-reply endpoint for... what exactly?

Perhaps owning a (small but global) cloud computing & telecom company has spoiled me, but it seems like a trivial amount of resources to me for any moderately sized company let alone a large tech/telecom like anything you’d have heard of.

Side note, am I missing something obvious where I can’t just have hardware routers strip ICMP, pipe it separately, put 500 VMs behind 4 vLBs and let the world ping the brains out of it?
Seems like a lot of overhead for zero benefit.

The only problem is the less friendly IP address (although this will be less and less a problem with IPv6, since 2001:4860:4860::8888 is not really friendly).
Fun fact: Someone at Sprint had the same hobby as I did in the early 1970s. Their website resolves to 2600:: which I think is rather friendly. :-)
Please don't use it for an IPv6 ping target, thanks.
