I think you intentionally make confusion for everyone. ----Your---------- This is wrong. The Internet Protocol (IP) was not invented only to create the public Internet. It was created so that all networks, that want to interconnect with another network, have an internetworking protocol that does the job. The public Internet is the biggest internetwork but it is not the only one. Globally unique addresses are required so that a network can interconnect with other networks without renumbering. --------------- Nobody, including me, prevents you or someone else to using IP addresses! The term "Globally unique addresses" is useful if you mean PUBLIC part of the network. In my own network I can use the address I like, not involving the RIPE or any other organizations and rules. If I want to interconnect with another network I should agree with the network only, not with all the world. ----Your---------- The RIRs are not there to serve the Internet. They are there to serve the users of IP technology which is a bigger group than just the Internet. It is OK for RIPE to provide services that are only needed on the Internet, but it is not nice if RIPE would stop providing services to IP users who are not connected to the Internet. --------------- Not at all: "The RIPE NCC is an independent, not-for-profit membership organisation that supports the infrastructure of the Internet through technical co-ordination in its service region. The most prominent activity of the RIPE NCC is to act as the Regional Internet Registry (RIR) providing global Internet resources and related services (IPv4, IPv6 and AS Number resources) to members in the RIPE NCC service region." The users, that not connected to the Internet, are not in scope of the RIPE. IP is not the only network technology. And the network is not the only activity in the World.
