In my experience it's vendor support that is lacking, not provider
support....

Hi folks,

I am trying to compile data on which providers are currently supporting
BGP Flowspec at their edge, if there are any at all.  The few providers
I've reached out to have indicated they do not support this and have no
intention of supporting this any time in the near future.  I'm also
curious why something so useful as to have the ability to advertise flow
specification information in NLRI and distribute filtering information
is taking so long to gain a foothold in the industry...
