according to Filip, this is -NOT- supposed to be anycast. the only legal origin ASN is 4555.
these other ASNs have hijacked the prefix.
The source data above may be old, or simply wrong -- I don't see *any* AS originating that prefix right now, and I can confirm specifically AS20144 is not configured to originate it. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding the original question, but the assertion that anybody is hijacking that particular prefix seems false. Joe
