If anything, the outrage should be directed at Global Crossing/L3. They shouldn't be allowing some little ISP to screw up their route tables like that. Because this means that the Malaysian government could secretly announce just a few blocks, route them back out so they still work, and easily do MITM.

OTOH, so much in telecom is hung together on the assumption of basically good actors everywhere.
