This thread has to be one of the most overtly hostile threads I've read on HN in a while. What is your concern here? Why do you seem to feel they shouldn't even be trying?

What ISP are you affiliated with?

We bypass traditional ISPs by connecting directly at an internet exchange point (DE-CIX IXP) and peering with other networks. This is basically how the internet is formed, by networks peering with each other. We don't need this ISP layer.

I think the OP was asking what ISP walrus1 works for, given they've already identified themselves as a network engineer.

[JustSomeNobody]

I was referring to walrus1. Sorry for the confusion. Y'all keep doing what you're doing. I have big hopes for efforts like yours.

Thanks!
