These two points interest me the most.
Lets say, an LIR is requesting IPs for the purpose of access,
but then runs mailservers on it, sending lots of spam.

- first, how do you find evidence, that the LIR is using the
   address space now for a different purpose ?
- second, did it ever happen, that the NCC revoked address
   space or allocations or terminated a contract, because the
   LIR was using the IPs for a different purpose and then denied
   fix that ?
