Brandon, Sorry you don't understand how multinational companies and peering agreements work, nor any of the relationships my past networks would of had with akamai. But be confident in the fact none of your concerns would of been an issue and it certainly wasn't because decisions were made with out all aspects being taken into play

"nice network you have there, shame if something were to happen to it" one day they may be the target themselves then they can explain to shareholders their part in enabling so much business disruption Sadly it seems there will always be an exploding Pinto on the internet Perhaps Akamai could present them with a bill for unwanted traffic as they're monetising ddos they may as well charge both sides and having dropped Krebs due to the disruption a court may agree damages too. brandon
