Yup, they do indeed. And for fun, I black-listed one of our IPs, and
sure enough, the next-hop shows up as 10.255.255.255, and the
communities are the same aside from what appear to be regional things.

The address for this is 66.28.1.228 which is the originator for the
104.31.19.30/3 <http://104.31.19.30/32>2 and 104.31.18.30/32 routes.

Call it a "hunch" but I doubt 10.255.255.255 is a valid next-hop router.

Funny. Someone else got back:
"Abuse cannot not provide you a list of websites that may be
encountering reduced visibility via Cogent"
I almost wish I had a Cogent circuit just to bring this up with an
account rep. Almost.
I'd very much so view this as a contractual violation on Cogent's part.
Cogent keeps contacting me every year wanting to sell me service. This
will be a good one to bring up when they call me next time.
