It turns out I'm hiring. :) So I guess till Brad hires someone who thinks he can do better wrt avoiding random eastern european providers leaking covad specifics, those of y'all who want to can just accept his superblock advertisements and forget about the deaggregates. I don't suspect that the world is suddenly going to be rid of providers in remote corners of the world who fatfinger their router configs, or that everybody's suddenly going to adopt bcp38 and stop bogus advertisements in their tracks .. so we just resign ourselves to seeing entries like those remain fixtures in future cidr reports as well :( --srs --srs
