Bottom line, I’ve never seen a case where any ISP has definitively benefited from a restrictive peering policy. At best, it’s a neutral factor that most people just sort of accept. Routinely, it drives business away from such ISPs towards Tier-2s with good transit relationships and a better peering policy. At worst, I’ve seen it create active bad will in various communities as is the current case with Cogent and is a demonstrable factor in the decline of SPRINT.

Agree. Mark.
