I'd think that is common everywhere.

Here I am linked to a Wimax-like ISP that seems to have built their
service with duct tape. It is a very small company with not many
employees. They don't even have an ASN. They just NAT all their users
and inject them into the network of a big telecom.

I am actually quite happy with the service.
