you might be amused to write a bit of code to see if your ix peers are
giving you next-hops of other provider(s). it is clear that a number of
providers are selling transit across the ixs. not at all cool.
we can't decide whether to force next hop on their routes, or keep watching
and de-peer them if they do not cease and desist. what do others do in this
circumstance?
