I assume this is BGP routing as a service (which sounds cool).

But, would this not break the internet if everyone used it? routing individual IPs (rather than large blocks) sounds like it would end in chaos?

In general, most ISPs will drop any routes more specific than a /24. Presumably datapath has negotiated with some specific providers to allow /32s; it's up to that ISP to scale their routers to handle it; other ISPs will only see the /24 aggregate.
