PSI statement from their website
Cable & Wireless chose to terminate connectivity with
PSINet on 2June01. Over 90% of the traffic that used to be
routed through C&W is now being routed via other means
through our robust global free peering infrastructure. The
remaining 10% or so represents C&W customers that have been
deliberately cut off from PSINet by C&W. While PSINet is
ready and willing to re-establish connectivity with C&W at
any time, it is up to C&W to choose to reverse their
previous decision. In the meantime, PSINet can offer
services directly to those C&W customers that are affected.

Does the 10% number mean C&W's network reach has shrunk, or that a
growing number of networks are multihomed?
