I am reading it wrong, partially.  It's NTT America, not Verio.  Missed a layer.


Anyway...

   
I know they're not actually making any money, so they may not be able to 
afford it, but shouldn't a service that's trying to be as big as twitter 
be multihomed?

 You sure it's their network, and not Twitter's core/edge?

They're blaming it on their upstream.

Twitter doesn't run their own core or edge.  It's all in the NTT cloud.
