[AusNOG] Hurricane Electric as a Transit provider.

[Bradley Amm]

Yes of course they peer at the peering points but the point I was making to get to Telstra, Optus, AAPT, iiNet, Foxtel, Belong (Those ISPs connect the vast amount of consumers) the traffic has to go overseas first. Also take into account the ISP's that filter them out as it caused traffic to TPG to go via the USA for example

To clarify, HE do peer at many MLP exchanges in Australia which I do consider captures plenty of "major ISPs", but they do not to my knowledge (like cogent) have any domestic relationships with the GoF (as it used to be called), which makes them quite unviable as a sole provider in au.
