Of course, this is not how consensus works.
I also think you're misunderstanding my argument. I'm all for fighting abuse. A lot of my work is in abuse and fraud prevention and in the prevention of financial crime. I'm not arguing against preventing abuse, only against adding even more regulators
where they aren't needed.
The Gmail example still does not address my concern. They say what you can do with Gmail, which is the service. An IP address itself is not an abusable service, the systems addressed by them are. Gmail doesn't tell you what to do on third party services
you sign up to with your
gmail.com address. Google is responsible for Gmail. The RIPE NCC is responsible for the IP addresses. The network operator is responsible for the systems.
