I see from peering db:  2020-07-01T14:22:01Z
According to the bg.he.net link
AS18894 has not been visible in the global routing table since November 28, 2020
The information displayed is from that time.


Are they causing you or someone issues Eric? Maybe they went out of business? Many businesses don’t worry about peering 
db entries. Looks like the website has been under constructions since 2020.

Sounds to me like they made a splash, and faltered.

First, take a look at this:

https://www.peeringdb.com/asn/18894


Now look at these (or use your own BGP table analysis tools):

https://bgp.he.net/AS18894

https://stat.ripe.net/18894

The claimed prefixes announced, traffic levels and POPs appear to have no correlation with reality in global v4/v6 
BGP tables.

It is also noteworthy that I have inquired with a number of persons I know who are active in network engineering in 
NYC, and nobody has ever encountered this company.
