Much like ARIN, really.
Oh really? So if I start using a frequency that requires a license and I
don't have one, won't they tell me to stop? And if I say no, I won't
stop, what happens then? Will they never call the cops and have them show
up and forcibly shut down my equipment? And if I try to defend my
equipment, will the cops not shoot me?
Sorry, all government policies are enforced by guns.
ARIN is not government, if I don't pay ARIN for my address space and keep
using it anyway, no cops will show up at my door. Sure my upstreams may
decide to shut off my announcements, but a gun never gets involved.
