Well, personally, I'd have hoped that the network admins would have
blacklisted the MAC addresses of those users. When their 'net stops
working, they would hopefully wander to the helpdesk and be
enlightened.
The more troubling issue is one of implementation though. I suspect
the hosts which start acting like a router, to advertise the 6to4 or
site-local prefixes (or do other kinds of things) might be a bit..
broken.
