that may conceal gold, from their warped point of view, but I haven't a
clue why so many people would be beating on some apparently unassigned

One of the nice things about IPv6, is that the address space is so vast
and sparse, that it isn't feasible to scan it in the way IPv4 gets
scanned, so if we ever get round to moving to IPv6 this sort of stuff
will go away.
