If I'm not mistaken, that was ORBS.
Correct. A particularly interesting case, since ORBS' transit provider
was also a transit customer of Above.net. Said transit provider would
announce their /16s, of which ORBS sat in a /24 or two of, and have
their traffic blackholed.
IIRC they punched /24s via their other transit providers to partly
resolve the issue.
But the rest of the story - let's not go there.
