It’s equally viable to claim that ARDC could be in breach of their fiduciary duty if they did not sell off the excess inventory of IPv4 address space, while it still had a substantial monetary value.
Correct. It was worthless when they got it in 1980ish, it will be worthless in the future. Right now it is not worthless, so they sold part of it and kept the rest for us to play with. But they (ARDC) are/were under no obligation to anyone or anything to hang on to it. They could have sold the entire 44/8 space for probably 10 times the money if they wanted to. We all are beneficiaries of their good graces. None of us here are *entitled* to anything.
