A decade ago the authorization rules for route objects were relaxed to 
not require anymore authorization by the aut-num object maintainer.

Hence any random idiot with control over an inetnum object can create 
a corresponding route/route6 object referencing any ASN they want:

Netnod has control over the AS112 aut-num object, so they can just 
delete this route6 object if they do not like it:
