Nobody should ever be forced to peer to get someone to address abusive traffic originating from networks under their control.
Especially considering the fact that Amazon is just a bit selective about their peers. Though, the size of our border probably had a lot to do with the fact that we didn’t get a response the first time when we requested peering for our 10s of megabits of traffic, we none the less didn’t get a response the first time we tried. Not even a “go away until you have some traffic of significance.” In the end, we had to implore a back channel to get a peering session set up.
