Recall that only your outbound traffic is under your control.
The only control regarding inbound traffic is the presence or
abscence of your prefixes. Prepends won't override a remote
autonomous system's decisions at their cost, performance, or
other metrics. Your directly-neighboring providers may support
ccommunities to influence the traffic on their network & their
borders, but expect your guarenteed influence to flow only as
far as your dollars.
Cheers,
Joe
