[AusNOG] APNIC WHOIS

[Karl Kloppenborg]

Basically they have had my details on their APNIC allocations for the last two years.

I haven't worked there in two years.

I was joking about it on facebook stating that it is scary that it still contains my info (and I posted part of the whois)

However sure enough guns a blazing they came at me demanding I remove it from facebook.

I since have, so it doesn't turn ugly.. but come on, seriously?
 

Cheers!
