I stated above that you should not announce another provider's space =20
without their permission, and you specifically agreed.  Here you are =20
talking about that space being announced without the owner's =20
knowledge.  Make up your mind.

We both agree that announcing another provider's space without their =20
consent is a Very Bad Thing.  I doubt you will find people willing to =20
post here to the contrary.  If the owner _does_ know the space is =20
being announced, the edge filters are no different whether it is =20
originated in the second upstream's ASN or an ASN owned by the customer.

So again, I ask, how is that different?

You'll note that you left a word out above.  He's agreeing that even if
you do have permission, you shouldn't announce space from another
provider.
