Regarding client support, why does only Google appear to be interested? Talking about saving a round trip here... To try with NGINX, you may need to add compile it with --with-cc-opt="-DTCP_FASTOPEN=[X]" otherwise just adding fast

Or they fixed it/bing corrected itself, or it was an anomaly - hey OP, how about a screenshot? What I'd bet against is it being deliberate, unless an employee went rogue.

Their bandwidth is estimated to be in the neighborhood of 6Gbit/s, and they allegedly grabbed 100TB of data. If my math is right that would take fifteen days for them to download. Unless of course they got a bargain on a VPS somewhere
