Is it just me, or has their backbone been mis-behaving over the last few hours?

There's another thread about the same topic:

[Cross posted from another thread as it applies here as well]

It wo2n't be reported, but, Vendor-X (which you can guess, not Cisco) had a serious BGP bug which caused their major backbone routers to pass bad routes. The internet isn't monitored for QoS by the government like the phone companies are but after the hush-hush issue that fell down over exodus and many other tier 1's this weekend, people like Paul Vixie might press for it.

Most of this information from Exodus comes via NDA if you subscribe to their trouble-ticket mailing list. All I can tell you is that what you read in that whole thread is not untrue.
