Not all BGP blackholes are the same. The AS7007 incident from over twenty years ago is an entirely different cause, and thus unrelated.

  What I take from that: It is a BGP blackhole incident.

    What I take from this is that you’re offering input to a thread which you don’t have experience in or even actually understand, thus are spreading misinformation. You then are continually doubling down further showing your maturity. You aren’t helping, so please stop.

      I'd wager I'm not spreading disinforming because of said disclaimer and links to emails, but whatatever floats your boat.

        Chris Adams made an exasperated comment[0] in the heat of the moment of dealing with an outage. You posting it here and positing it as a possibly valid information is the very definition of spreading misinformation and you did it for what gain? Maybe if multiple folks were saying it or at least agreeing with Chris, it might be different. Long story short, admit you’re wrong and just move on.

            > My current theory: The current Internet with the crappy BGP security model is the way it is because it was built by network admins turned amateur software developers. We need raise the level of software quality in the core parts of the net. Further proving my point. Thanks and have a great day!
