thats probably a key part of the experiment - to find locations and systems where 1.1.1.1 is trashed.
it should be routable and its about time that vendors stopped messing around in that space - hopefully this is one of the sticks that prods people to start to behave - at which point 1.0.0.0/8 will regain value too and can be used by APNIC for other requirements. as for those berating addresses used for experiments - there are MANY networking experiments going on out there , the Internet itself derives from one big ongoing experiment...and some would even say it IS still an experiment. alan On 2 April 2018 at 17:04, John R.
