Maybe.  I don't see too many tier-1 network operators
attacking other tier-1 network operators. The trend I
continue to see affecting network operators is customer
security incidents, i.e. compromised end-user
applications.

Would be nice to see all tier-X service providers provide
more (working) knobs and response teams to help their
customers and peers track, diagnose and defend and protect
themselves against security attacks.
