According to the presentation they were planning on releasing a
downloadable tool by May 2009, but in searching around I found no
evidence that this was ever released.

I note the talks about using spoofed source packets to do some
measurement, I didn't see anyone in the video say: "But spoofing is
bad, but you want YOU to be able to do this? what? isn't that a little
hypocritical?"

Isn't it? and why would someone (an isp) disable BCP38 for this sort
of activity?
