@alexs @Firesphere @aurynn @xssfox FWIW from here (Vodafone HFC, ie DOCSIS FTTN) path is Vodafone (under several names of former purchases), 3 hops of random 198.41.237.0/24 nodes (~6 IPS returned per hop), and then Catalyst edge. All of 198.41.128.0/17 is CloudFlare.

I don’t see any Solarix hop at all in my path. The early 203.167.245.0/24 hops are Vodafone. First Catalyst named hop is 202.78.247.22, which is a Catalyst IP.

@ewenmcneill @Firesphere @aurynn @xssfox More digging indicates Catalyst are seemingly directly up-streamed by CloudFlare also (BGP routes from Atlas) and your path indicates that also.

For your route, Vodafone private peers with CloudFlare so you'd see the most direct path.

Also, you can see the same in Aussie.

@alexs @ewenmcneill @aurynn @xssfox the more I see, the more I'm like "this company has a finger in every bowl of porridge" with or without us knowing

@ewenmcneill @xssfox @Firesphere @aurynn yes I hate that too. Check IRD as another example, or RBNZ.
