I want to reply to the following dead comment [1] > Aah, the wapo, that's Bezos, isn't it? It actually doesn't seem that unreasonable to me that a company as large as Amazon sees vast, unused resources held by the government. They publish an article as a sort of "wink wink, nudge nudge" to see if they can get it put up for auction. In fact, I'd be shocked if someone at Amazon or another company hasn't tried to ask th…
"several Chinese companies use network numbering systems that resemble the U.S. military’s IP addresses in their internal systems" I don't think I've heard of this before. What does it mean? Does China operate a disconnected BGP network? Or do they have some modified protocol, or what?

These IP addresses were unused for a very long time, so using them on internal networks worked fine. Once the Floridian company in the article started announcing them, gateway routers on the Chinese internal networks may have started sending their traffic to Florida.
