Hi!
Isn't there a RFC which states that internet routers must not enroute the reserved IP addresses?
I also want my ISP to be transparent, so it keeps being INTERNET. But the reserved IPs are not internet anyway. What ISP are you with? I want to make sure I'm not with them ...
That's what VPNs are for. An open ISP would just promote DOS attacks, M$ viri, and dirty networks cause by UDP broadcasting. Rather setup a VPN between the networks or machines that need to communicate via no standard protocols.

Now I ask myself, should'nt my ISP stop routing packets which contain a local 127.0.0.0/32 IP as dest/orig ?
Actually, NO. An ISP should be transparent. YOU should block whatever you want for your own network.
