Re: IP range for lease

Too much grey area with respect to property rights (or lack thereof) as they relate to INRs. Until there is more concrete case law on the matter, which isn't likely to happen in most of our careers, monetizing it will be the rule.

Hopefully IPv4 becomes irrelevant (although still used) before that happens. That said, the history of other US high courts decisions on critical resources (domains + numbers) is of very reasoned decisions, so if one comes along, it will likely not be what "monetizers" would prefer. Rubens
