Some are. Verizon bought EdgeCast CDN which has a Cloudflare style WAF. They now operate under the Verizon Digital Media Services monicker, but it’s been a bit of a challenge for them to integrate.
- kitteh 7y agoAnd that's backfired for Verizon a little bit. Think about it this way. Verizon is now a CDN: they have to get as much peering as they want. Verizon (as701) the big eyeball network has no plans to peer openly. It complicates peering negotiations because edgecast (separate asn) can't give up the access that everyone wants to Verizon. Similar happened when tata (old teleglobe) bought bitgravity cdn and constrained their peering relationships.
