DT tries to make everyone that peers pay them. Facebook used to pay the ransom, then decided to stop. Now its going to move to a transit connection. The problem is DT keeps its transit routes congested or artificially limits how much traffic a transit provider can deliver. So now when FB moves to transit, will DT widen those connections or will it keep them narrow to try to make Facebook's applications get terrible enough performance that Facebook will pay DT. It's a showdown. DT wants to get paid twice for the same service, once by its subscribers and once by every app and website on the planet. https://cyberlaw.stanford.edu/blog/2024/09/a-deutsche-telekom-shakedown-will-instagram-facebook-whatsapp-slow-to-a-crawl/ https://cyberlaw.stanford.edu/blog/2024/09/a-deutsche-teleko..."
