That sales BS is probably prompted by customers telling sales people that they won't buy service from anyone but a "tier 1" provider. This leads to many creative definitions of tier 1.
So, how firm is the "transit-free" definition? (That's what I always thought was the proper definition, but it's been obliterated in the past couple of years...) Firm enough to slap abusers with false advertising suits? ;-P
Well, for one thing, "transit-free" doesn't mean that you can route to all the other "transit-free" providers.... -- J.D. Falk SILENCE IS FOO! <jdfalk@cybernothing.org>
