Kudos to Telia for admitting their mistakes, and fixing their processes.
Considering Telia's scope and "experience", that is one thing. But for the general good of the Internet, the number of intended or unintentional route hijacks in recent years, and all the noise that rises on this and other lists each time we have such incidents (this won't be the last), Telia should not have waited to be called out in order to get this fixed. Do we know if they are fixing this on just this customer of theirs, or all their customers? I know this has been their filtering policy with us (SEACOM) since 2014, as I pointed out earlier today. There has not been a shortage of similar incidents between now and then, where the community has consistently called for more deliberate and effective route filtering across inter-AS arrangements. There is massive responsibility for the community to act correctly for the Internet to succeed. Especially so during these Coronavirus times where the world depends on us to keep whatever shred of an economy is left up and running. Doubly so if you are a major concern (like Telia) for the core of the Internet. It's great that they are fixing this - but this was TOTALLY avoidable. That we won't see this again - even from the same the actors - isn't something I have high confidence in guaranteeing, based on current experience. We can all do better. We should all do better. Mark.
