[Linux-aus] internode/iinet/tpg ipv4 bogons in route

[dap at zepherin.com]

Here is the explanation from 2019:

> The 10.20.x.x interestingly is a loopback address for the provider edge NBN / TPG network.It's not pingable, however it does appear in traceroutes.We have discussed this issue with networks to remove it, however it's not high on their agenda and it's not breaking anything, apart from causing angst among the network savvy customers.


Sounds like exactly the thing they would say if they are intercepting all my traffic ... -;)

Being paranoid, I assume this is doing deep packet inspection / recording for ASIO / NSA / …? I have tried to suggest they fix their infrastructure so as to give the bogon a non-private address, but they demur.
