DENOG17: An introduction to qGIS for current Google Earth Users
At #denog17, the people behind #Netzbremse unveiled a new feature: a #speedtest using five different transit providers to (hopefully) uncover unfair peering practices of ISPs, in this case the #DeutscheTelekom #Telekom, but this is very likely helpful for other situations as well. I wanted to dig deeper and found that it uses five different IPv4 prefixes of #Cloudflare that are advertised to different transit providers. Using #HurricaneElectric’s BGP view we get:
I’m not deep enough into the BGP game to understand what transit provider is really pushed for in each prefix.
(unfortunately #IPv4only, I guess they didn’t want to dedicate five /48 prefixes as well for this project).

Im #RuhrMuseum in #Essen ist die Original-Jacke von Horst Schimanski ausgestellt. Wer zu jung ist und nicht weiss wer das war kann auf Wikipedia nachlesen: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horst_Schimanski
Interessant ist, dass die Beschriftung auf der Vitrine eine reale Person beschreibt.
