There was a blog post a while ago explaining turning off expensive
transit for their free product. I believe only affected Au and maybe
south America.

Do remember that Cloudflare *does* buy transit if you pay them.
The peering only policy only affects free and Pro plans, not
Business or Enterprise.
I believe they use different IPs for the plans specifically so
they can do this.

Related, this means that if you have sites behind Cloudflare
(who do peer with IX) as a CDN / DDoS protection for example all
your traffic routes off-shore with TPG & Friends -
The simple solution to this is to switch to a CDN provider who
don't care about having to buy transit.
The downside is unlike Cloudflare you will need to pay for
bandwidth, however if you are on the Business plan with CF then
switching away will likely work out significantly cheaper for Au
bandwidth, as the pricing is $200 USD a month with CloudFlare but
you can get a bunch of others significantly cheaper.
