from the article: "Some ISPs, overwhelmed by the volume of traffic, are using reflective routing to reduce their own loads. When traffic destined for another ISP's network arrives at the router, reflective routing does not send the traffic on to the destination ISP but bounces it back where it came from, further complicating the work of the Internet's routers.
