So many marks on the list...
Anyway... Perhaps greater cooperation amongst providers in AU would be able
to breach the Reach (har har) and achieve the sort of pricing that you see
on trans-atlantic (transit basically) links::
http://www.hiberniaatlantic.com/documents/ProjectKelvin-PricingMarch20111_000.pdf
Seans Idea of pumping all the traffic overseas for a week to pwn the Go4 is
a great idea, what would be better is the establishment of a
"not-for-profit" consortium that got together to bully the Go4 into
submission. The best thing about it is even the dedicated server providers
that have them used by gamers won't be bearing much of a brunt as it will
be T$lstra who has to explain why latency to next door neighbour on iiNet
is being routed via SJ while iiNet customer enjoys low latency to 90% of
providers who do choose to peer. Or at least that would be the idea
(trollface), maybe someone experienced could think of the actual
ramifications and possibilities..
