The point was not who did what to whom. The point was bending policies due
to certain circumstances and forced peering due to these.
I do recall you having transit via geonet for a while however on the network in
question. Same issue, on a much smaller scale, than AGIS/Digex situation.
I agree with taking this offline, and discussing the "issue" rather than the
particular situation between our networks.
