as somebody who is a DE-CIX "customer" i find that really funny. maybe for small IXes in europe, but big players like LINX and DE-CIX are doing their thing too.

  I may have missed your meaning, but to be clear, LINX is not for profit and DE-CIX is wholly owned by a not for profit association.

    It sure doesn't behave like a non profit.

      Huh, Netnod in Stockholm is also owned by a non-profit, I had no idea. But its still very expensive to connect to afaik.

It's the norm in the US too.
