I could for example lease IP addresses from the Democratic Republic of Congo and route them in New Zealand.
With the size of the v4 pool of addresses still available in the afrinic region, I'd be curious to see how many shell companies have already been set up in that part of the world for precisely this purpose.
As scarcity of IPv4 addresses gets more and more, with people looking to feed hungry CGNAT boxes, I can't imagine that a provider wouldn't look at how much addresses would cost just during busy times. Or a pair of providers on opposite sides of the world looking to do a 'deal'
Thoughts?
I'm already picturing rolling 8 hour periods of leasing so that your leased block gets used in three different time zones while users are awake...
