Does this work for APNIC or is ARIN-specific?

APNIC totally different bro they dont even have legacy recovery like this

traffic worse than my packet loss

APNIC has waiting list and transfer market only. No "reclaim abandoned" process that I've seen work in practice. Vietnam perspective, your mileage may vary.

ZFS is love, legacy IP recovery is... also love? Unexpected thread.

zfs send | zfs receive. repeat.

Original allocation, 2001. Direct from ARIN, not brokered. Clean history.

That helps explain it. Bought space has more chain of title issues. Original allocation is simpler for them to verify.
