Yes, that's a great suggestion! I've adjusted the subject line to match new topic.
If anybody is interested in sharing, please reach out. I should have a few IPv4 /24 coming online over the next few weeks.

provider’s backbone. There are providers who have several locations/data
centers internally networked. But the most practical and safest way is to
share a e.g. 1/4 rack:

And hardly anyone can afford a 10G, 40G or 100G connection or several petabytes
of traffic per month.We have divided a /24 into /27 which are routed. One AS and each /27 is
