Total Retard War: Pushing back against Cogent

[Laffs n Gaffs]

Cogent has de-peered with NTT in Europe.

It's funny how absolutely shit Cogent is, even outside of the bullshit involved with the Farms.

Cogent claims it was due to "lack of Asia connectivity".

Over the past few years, Cogent has been trying to work with NTT Global on ensuring sufficient connectivity in each global region the networks operate per normal peering practices. Our efforts have included establishing connectivity with NTT Global in Europe and North America without requiring that NTT Global establish connectivity in Asia. Typically, we would expect companies that peer do so on a worldwide basis and not regionally. Despite Cogent’s repeated requests, NTT Global has consistently refused to establish connectivity in Asia, taking advantage of Cogent’s good faith efforts while also ensuring sub-standard service to both companies customers. No amount of good will and good faith augments on Cogent’s part has brought NTT Global any closer to the negotiating table for a resolution of the lack of connectivity in Asia. This one-sided situation has become untenable and as a result, Cogent has elected to start the process of disconnecting from NTT Global’s AS 2914. We discussed this with NTT Global in advance, and NTT Global simply indicated that they would not alter their position and were ready for the connectivity changes. We are attempting to effect the disconnection process in phases to allow for any necessary connectivity and traffic adjustments by NTT Global.

Cogent claims it was due to "lack of Asia connectivity".

They claim that. They use peering agreements as a form of extortion, so there's almost definitely more to this than whatever Cogent claim. Most likely, it's part of Dave Schaeffer's apparent plans to make Cogent - and by extension, himself - the kingmaker in the T1 ecosystem, by forcing dependence on Cogent's network to such a degree that the T1s have to bow to his whims or face severe disruption of their own networks. Cogent will gladly black-hole traffic and fuck with BGP announcements to get its way.

 

[skunt]

cheap tier1 wants to peer in expensive region, gets denied and proceeds to de-peer in europe and america. a t1 internet provider acting like a teenage girl, ha.

 

[Cyberia Sec]

and america

Not yet but probably soon, they are killing themselfs I hope. But also sad to see since we kinda need a couple new T1 providers.

Before I feature this, please check my post. If you have trouble understanding any of my instructions let me know.

Very excited to become an unhinged nigger. I will knock the chip rack over and they will not stop me.

Whites, stop telling feminists and fags to "Learn to Code", because they are indeed doing it and those cunts are fucking half this shit up. YOU need to learn how to code to be able to understand how they are attacking you, and how to fight back against them.

Whites are made for delivering doordash and serving starbucks and sucking dick for money, not coding.

"Learn to code" was funny when they thought advancements in robotics would replace manual laborers. It turns out that robotics is pretty complicated, and AI language models are pretty decent at writing code. Who would have guessed the technology would replace the button pushers before the people swinging shovels?

Probably the most classy thing Josh ever did was allowing the fundraising link to disappear off the home page when it was no longer immediately topical. Somebody should tell The Guardian that they don't need to take up the bottom half of my phone when I'm just trying to read a one-off story about Megan Markle's latest attempt at being half the influencer Hasan ever was.

Josh should have just done the Wikipedia thing and taken over the whole screen. Surely the fund would have a million dollars by now.

Is it even a real website if 90% of your expenses isn't paying millions to a diverse C suite that doesn't actually do anything? (this is actually true of wikipedia btw)

Spoiler: financials

My friend works for a pajeet company except he doesn't actually do anything. They just give him 2k every two weeks and he basically just logs in a fiddles around. So I'm certain there is a bubble in CS and it soon to pop. Glad I work on cars bc ppl are dumb and will always wreck their cars. And I don't have to deal with pajeets or gay ppl. I don't deal with anyone actually, I specially go out of my way to not talk to ppl. But yeah I'd be worried if ur a coder bc its bc a meme, and pretty soon the bar to enter will be raised and ull be a code monkey just running around doing menial repetitive tasks that suck all the joy and pride out of ur labor. My suggestion as soon as that happens go be a plumber or electrician or smth

I recently found out the reason for SSL warnings when accessing the Onion link.
Dong-Gone tried to push a political internet censorship by spamming abuse reports.

From KiwiFarms official account XEET:

The SSL certificate for Kiwi Farms over Tor has been renewed. Fun fact: Our Tor SSL certificate was almost revoked after abusive complaints from @honeycombio's Field CTO @lizthegrey. They changed their mind, but this would have been the first political SSL deplatforming, I think

If current SSL would have been revoked, could we still obtain other SSL certificate?

 

[Null]

Yes. He still tried anyways. This was last year.

 

[reptile baht spaniard rid]

If current SSL would have been revoked, could we still obtain other SSL certificate?

The issue was that an SSL cert for an onion domain is kind of silly (the whole method of communication with an onion URL is a certificate itself) AND so there are very few SSL certificate issuers who sign onion certs.

I legitimately do not understand why Dong Gone cares so much. Like legitimately what does he get out of all this effort? Is it pure narcisstic rage that despite all his effort the damn dirty kiwi farms refuses to conform to his will? It's completely batshit

He's tried moonlighting as a dominatrix. His husband is a man who dresses up in shirts without arm holes so he can pretend to be a helpless snake woman. Liz Fong-Jones is a terminally porn addicted chink coomer who can no longer masturbate. He only derives pleasure from sadism and domination. He has been accused of sexually assaulting women. He made himself Google's LGBTQIAP+ executioner while working for them. He is now in a position of power at another tech startup.

Every pearl of joy that this man creates for himself is made at the expense of someone else. He will be a creepy, possessive freak until the day God decides to rid this planet from him. And he doesn't handle being told "no" well.

 

[purpleflurp]

Wait, was Dong Gong accused of more than one "consent accident"? I only remember the one instance they actually admitted to.

 

[geckogoy]

That doggone dong gone done gone too far
