Nope. It is because who pay the money, and somebody wants to earn the money because they have more control. So it is because of "money". Welcome to the world of capitalism. Alex On Mon, Jun 6, 2011 at 5:19 PM, <rucasbrown () hushmail com> wrote:
Hello, I wouldn't consider myself a network engineer, nor do I have any formal training, but why don't ISPs peer with every other ISP? It would only save EVERYONE money if they did this, no? Only issue I see is with possibly hijacked / malicious AS owners, but that's not very common to do without being caught. All the whole "don't peer with this guy" only makes your customers have worse latencies and paths to other people, making the Internet less healthy. Thanks, Rucas PS: sorry if I sent this twice; client lagged a bit.
