The he.net side is interesting as you can see who their v4 transits are but they suppress their routes via v6, but (last I knew) lacked community support for their customers to do similar route suppression. I’m not a fan of it, but it makes the commercial discussions much easier each time those networks come by to shop services to me in a personal or professional capacity. “No, I need all the internet”. - Jared

I remember when the big carriers de-peered with Cogent in the early 2000s. The underestimated the amount of web-sites being hosted by people using cogent exclusively.

I'd like to start a thread about the most famous and widespread Internet operational issues, outages or implementation incompatibilities you have seen.
Well... pre-Internet, but the great Northeast fiber cut comes to mind (backhoe vs. fiber, backhoe won).
