Doesn’t look like they peer at any of the IXs per peeringdb. Upstream appears to be Level3 so maybe peer or buy some 
transit from Level3/CenturyLink/Lumen or whatever company they are today?

We run a healthy-sized ISP (say, 2.5M households, plus enterprise, etc ) and we really, REALLY want to make sure our

success I'd want with the typical "aggregators"  (they know who they are ) and would really like to link to the 
source even if it means trenching through the core of the Earth...

Would love pointers, names, or any leads, on or off list.
