Hi Justin, Rent or sell them a /24 and make money. If they can't afford a /24 at today's market rate, why should the rest of us spend much more money upgrading routers to accommodate their advertisement? The annual systemic cost of carrying that prefix is still more than double the one-time cost of acquiring a /24. No doubt that gap will close, but there's no cost justification to change the /24 filters just yet.
