AWS adds an extra 5.5M IPv4 addresses
Alternative view - those addresses should not be "returned". They're owned. I hope hoarders will get blocks as large as they can so that we experience real shortage and start seeing the first ipv6-only services.

The addresses are not owned by those in the list. They are allocated for an ongoing yearly fee.

If they were bought early enough, they count as legacy and are fee-free. And even if they aren't, the current price trend will easily outgrow the fee.
