We’ve come full circle - we started with centralized PTTs - moved to a
decentralized ASN/Paul Baran model - now Re-centralized based on marketing
domination.
+1 with Stephane’s observation. The selection of who to measure is a statement.

Also, while the data would be useful, I don't think the role of the ripe
ncc is to grade commercial services. Let other companies or individual
researchers do that.
