I'd like to peer with all tier 1's, they are thus all bad as
they won't.
HE decided they want to be transit free for v6 and set out on
a campaign of providing free tunnels/transit/peering to establish
this. Cogent, for all their faults, are free to not accept the
offer.
Can the Cogent bashing stop now, save it for when they do something
properly bad.
