Off topic, but I saw you mentioned NTT several times, and wondered if it's the same NTT that I remember from my childhood in Japan. It turns out that yes, the tier-1 provider NTT is headquartered in Japan, and the company name stands for Nippon Telegraph and Telephone. Its history goes back to 1869 when the telegraph was introduced in the country, and is now the 4th largest telecommunications company in the world in terms of revenue.
