Oh, and before anybody comes up with a simplistic (and flawed) rebuttal such as banning the large web crawlers from settlements, there are plenty of other legitimate automated methods of getting flows in either direction.
All I can say is that if settlements are based on who is receiving the traffic, there will be huge increase in the amount of money that networks pay to attract everyone's favortive smurf target, the IRC servers. A 2-day-long 100 Mbps smurf will be _encouraged_ :-) -- Dave Rand dlr () bungi com http://www.bungi.com
