That article is terrible.
Looking at the stats provided, only 2582 unique AS's were tested. http://www.cidr-report.org/as2.0/#General_Status has over 46k AS's currently in the routing table.
This means they have tested around 5% of the AS's on the Internet.
Well, it did strike me, when someone cited the same data last week, that it seemed an awful lot of stew to make from that few oysters. I suppose it does depend on what percentage of end nodes are subsumed by those AS's, but there's no authoritative way to know that from on top. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
