 log4jake | What about pub ips? Does the company have to purchase those? | 22:24:29 |
| log4jake | its tha apinc isnt it | 22:25:22 |
 Graham | big companies have them from the beginning of the Internet, mostly. In theory you can still get them from ARIN or the local equivalent, but there's not many left (in IPv4 anyway) | 22:25:27 |

I guess if you weren't part of the original infra its hard to get into it. Kinda like a monopoly almost. | 22:26:23 |
| Graham | yeah, unfortuntealy, especially in north america | 22:26:50 |

 protowarp | the few big isp companies like at&t and verizon seem to have everyone by the balls. verizon especially is super hostile in buying out multiple companies. they call it merging, but that basically means eating the other companies alive. | 08:28:13 |
| protowarp | we really need anti- monopoly internet policies | 08:31:12 |
| protowarp | we all be suffocated by the big bad wolves | 08:32:42 |
