This paper presents the view that several BGP hijacks performed by China
Telecom had malicious intent. The incidents are:
* Canada to Korea - 2016
* US to Italy - Oct 2016
* Scandinavia to Japan - April-May 2017
* Italy to Thailand - April-July 2017

The authors claim this is enabled by China Telecom's presence in North
America.
