Tim Thank for the info I used to manage BGP I was the System manager of an american company (NetManage) we had two internet feeds one from the USA mother company and other is from Local ISP and I announced the BGP from my router (we had Class B network ) But I forgot all it that was about 20 years ago ... As for the situation I think that if someone put BGP for network that not belong to him from from 2009 and not answering mails (as Brian wrote) is very serious Im not so optimistic as Brian in solving such a problem in diplomatic ways .. (specially if he already wrote them long ago and not even got answer ) but hes the "boss" i respect him for all his dedicated work he did (and still doing ) for us since the AMPR network started and i will follow his rules but if needed i am willing to be in the frontline to fight back against Network Hijackers of our network ...
NB Not connected to Network but connected to Hamradio Fights Maybe the Old Timers (who was active on the HF those days) remember the "woodpecker" the Russian Over The Horizon Radar that make big mess on our Bands I had the "honor" to to suffer from it as well .. at those times when the hams start to understand that this is a Over the Horizon Radar and that nothing help to stop its transmission a group of ham radios start to fight back they transmitted with CW keyer CW pulses on the radar frequency (of course in the ham bands) not long ago i have read article on the net about this fight ... it tern out that this fight succeeded a monitors station reported that every time that was a massive CW attack on the radar frequency they shifted it to another frequency (most of the time outside the ham-bands) so fight can solve things (if no other ways can) Regards Ronen - 4Z4ZQ http://www.ronen.org

in this case. Correct action here is to go down the path to have them withdraw the announcement or have their carriers block it from them.
