Not wishing to get into a pissing war with who is right or wrong, but it sounds like google already pays or has an agreement with cogent for v4, as that's unaffected, cogent says google is simply not advertising v6 prefixes to them, so, how is that cogent's fault?
Did you check that on Cogent's LookingGlass? "BGP routing table entry for 216.239.32.0/24, version 3740382954 Paths: (1 available, best #1, table Default-IP-Routing-Table) 6453 15169 154.54.13.206 (metric 10102020) from 154.54.66.21 (154.54.66.21) Origin IGP, metric 4294967294, localpref 100, valid, internal, best Community: 174:10031 174:20666 174:21000 174:22013 Originator: 66.28.1.9, Cluster list: 154.54.66.21" is a lookup on: http://www.cogentco.com/en/network/looking-glass if 216.239.32.0 - which holds ns1.google.com... I'd expect that ns1.google.com would be routed via the majority of links 15169 has with the world.

In other words, GOOG is playing peering chicken with Cogent for IPv6. I'm not surprised. I suggested it during talks with GOOG roughly 10 years ago...not saying I had any influence...I'm pretty sure I did not. :)
GOOG wants Cogent to peer. Cogent wants GOOG to pay for transit (from them or someone else to get to Cogent). If you're well peered / multihomed, it's not much of an issue. If you're a single-homed Cogent customer, you should complain to Cogent that they're not providing full IPv6 connectivity.

Hi,
mail from Cogent:
Dear Cogent Customer,
Thank you for contacting Cogent Customer Support for information about the Google IPv6 addresses you are unable to reach.
Google uses transit providers to announce their IPv4 routes to Cogent.
At this time however, Google has chosen not to announce their IPv6 routes to Cogent through transit providers.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you and will notify you if there is an update to the situation. <<<<
Mail from Google:
Unfortunately it seems that your transit provider does not have IPv6 connectivity with Google. We suggest you ask your transit provider to look for alternatives to interconnect with us.
Google maintains an open interconnect policy for IPv6 and welcomes any network to peer with us for access via IPv6 (and IPv4). For those networks that aren't able, or chose not to peer with Google via IPv6, they are able to reach us through any of a large number of transit providers.
For more information in how to peer directly with Google please visit https://peering.google.com <<<<

I just noticed that I am NOT getting IPV6 Google prefixes though Cogent at all. I was told google pulled all of their peering with Cogent? If I bring up a SIT tunnel with HE, I get the prefixes but at horrible speed and latency .. anyone else?
