It doesn't need to be a specific provider, those were just examples. The idea is to have free traffic between Backblaze and someone that provides compute, so you can transform the data without fetching all of it. I suggested those in particular because I believe they're all in the SF bay area and should be present at one of Unwired's existing peering points.
The reason I can't see traffic just being straight free for everyone is that for Backblaze to make traffic free, it needs to make arrangements with the providers to reduce costs (for example by connecting directly rather than through the internet).
