A possible solution would be to restrict submission of complaints to the LIRportal , thereby ensuring that the submitter is contractually obliged to the NCC and disclosure of this information can be appropriately sanctioned. Such sanctions would need to be enough to discourage abuse.

Unless I'm mistaken, which I could be, if submissions are restricted to the LIRportal then only RIPE members will be able to submit reports, which seems more than a little counterintuitive. LEA and security types etc., would probably want to submit reports as well, wouldn't they? I'd agree that the submission email address would have to be validated in some way, or there would be a lot of spurious / bogus complaints.
