Not if you use RFC 1918, ULAs or link-local addresses, it seems.

        perhaps you are conflating use vs. definition.
        clearly those IP addresses were defined in public, documented in 
public, and interoperate with other IP addresses.
        i think if they are used, and they can/do talk to other IP addresses, 
they fit the profile.

At Para 48  "Consistent with that delegation of authority to define these
terms, and 
with the Commission¹s previous recognition that the public switched
network will grow and change over time, this
Order updates the definition of public switched network to reflect
current technology, by including services that use public IP addresses."
