3 likely reasons


1) the US is forcing the interwebs backbone maintainers to implement some shady covert stuff

2) solar flares

3) aliens

Sorry guys, I was torrenting every episode of every afternoon cartoon from back in the 80's and 90's.

Felt like seeing me some Tinytoons and Freakazoid.

From personal experience, my best guess is that none of the major carriers have any competent engineers on staff anymore. In an effort to cut costs, they lay off their employees, starting with the highest paid ones (excepting management, of course). You're left with tier 1 offshore support that is full of people who don't know how to spell "Cisco" trying to troubleshoot BGP convergence problems.

I mean according to their week long data sheet, it has been the same rating, latency and loss, all week.

Prismatic?
