We've seen roughly a 37% increase. Went from aggregate 14.5Gbit/s to
roughly 20Gbit/s since March 10th and people are asking for more. It's
crazy how much bandwidth people are using. We haven't ran reports based on
destination AS yet but might be interesting to see what the "critical"
services are. I'm sure we all already assume it's Netflix, Disney+, and
Prime Video :)
