Since major events in the real-world also result in a lot of "new" traffic, how do you signal new sessions before they reach the affected region of the network? Can you use BGP to signal the far-reaches of the Internet that I'm having problems, and other ASNs should start slowing things down before they reach my region (security can-o-worms being opened).
I'm more worried about state getting "stuck", kind of like the total inability of the DHS worry-o-meter to move lower than yellow.
