## Scope and limitations
This record identifies the authoritative **top-level `/8` disposition**. It does not enumerate the many more-specific allocations, assignments, route origins, operators, services, or exact addresses inside the range.
A registry designation is not proof of legal ownership, current routing, physical location, or service operation. Use more-specific RDAP, BGP, RPKI, and operator sources before making those claims.
