I agree with Joe on this. At one time we were filtering 198.32/16 from
our peers but ran into things like ep.net (198.32.6.31) breaking. We now
only filter on IXP blocks for which we participate.

While on the subject of IXP blocks, we also ended up redistributing the
IXP blocks and sending them to our BGP customers (who do not receive a
default) so that traceroutes and such from Looking Glasses do not break.
They can then choose to filter them as they wish.

Exchange point blocks SHOULDN'T be transited by anyone, therefore you 
should not hear them from your peers.
