I confess I might be splitting hairs, but what Internet exchange
exists at 1850 Pearl Street? The best I can ascertain is that it's a
Level3 datacenter, which doesn't seem (to me) to be the same thing.
It would appear that neither LARIAT nor Netflix has chosen to connect
to the most prevalent (one might argue "only true") IXP in Colorado, so
I'm honestly a bit puzzled as to a) your indignation and b) their decision.
