 Also, blockfinder (https://github.com/ioerror/blockfinder) exports CSV,
 but I haven't normalized the export to match MaxMind's format yet, and
 there is a bug where, if the input dataset contains overlapping (e.g.
 supernets) regions, the least specific prefix is  matched. MaxMind curates
 their dataset (see the csv) so that there aren't overlapping regions. If I
 do something similar, we can obtain an open dataset of IP prefixes to AS
 mappings from routeviews.org routing table snapshots (or similar).
