It is sad to see that networks which used to care about connectivity,
peering, latency, etc., when they are small change their mind when
they are "big". The most recent example is Cogent, an open peer who
decided to turn down peers when they reached transit free status.
I never thought HE would be one of those networks.
The only thing Patrick is guilty of is not providing enough context.
The party at fault here is Cogent. If you re-read the entire thread and
speak with Mike Leber, you'll find that HE offered peering and/or
transit, for free, to Cogent - like they do to everyone else, and Cogent
didn't take it, providing for the segmentation we saw.
