Wander over to NANOG - a large(*) part of the ISP industry doesn't seem to think
that filtering RFC1918-space packets found on the public internet should
be filtered either.  Doesn't make it "right" in any sense of the term....

(*) large enough that some 30% of the traffic at the root nameservers is
from 1918 source addresses - and these packets never got filtered.
