This kind of thing is a problem from time to time with the data we get from route collectors. When we see it we have to add the culprit ASN to a filter list we keep in bgp.he.net. It tends to be a repeat problem with some collectors and some ASNs. We haven't really figured out why people

You are assuming the routing and transit relationships in IPv4 are the same in IPv6. IPv4 has many many many suboptimal transit relationships where routing is purposely suboptimal on the part of the networks in the path due to competitive reasons.  One example of suboptimal routing is traffic not

The routes you see are Cogent using IPv6 leaks. We chase these down as we see them. Obviously if Cogent is happy enough to use leaks, we could just give them our IPv6 customer routes directly.  ;) As a backbone operator, I'd prefer all routing we do (for at least the first hop leaving our

NTT's customer Sofia Connect leaked our routes to NTT. NTT accepted these routes instead of properly filtering their customer announcements. As a network of non-trivial size, announcing over 75,000 customer routes which is nearly 15% of the IPv4 routing table, we'd expect the common courtesy
