Droht der digitale Blackout? - KI und Internet am Limit - Die ganze Doku | ARTE

Das Digitalzeitalter hat längst das öffentliche und private Leben erreicht, eine Welt ohne E-Mail, TikTok, Web und KI scheint unvorstellbar. Doch die Technik hängt am seidenen Faden: Was, wenn der Strom für Rechenzentren knapp wird, Unterseekabel sabotiert und Grafikchips sanktioniert werden? In Forschung, Industrie und Militär sucht man nach Lösungen gegen den digitalen Blackout.

Vodafone will stop #peering in Europe. Apparently it will remove itself from all IXPs, halt private peering and move all that traffic to Inter.Link, a german firm. I can't really understand why it does. A write-up at www.linkedin.com/feed/update/... #netneutrality #fairshare #DeNOG #UKNOF #IXP

Vodafone selects Inter.link to enhance interconnection with other Internet service providers | Rudolf van der Berg

Is Vodafone brilliant? Or is it daft? What do you think? Apparently Vodafone will stop all public and private #peering in Europe. The press release of Vodafone and the news articles in Germany aren't fully clear on how this will work. German news site Heise (see comment for link) says Vodafone will even stop direct peering with Youtube! It reads as if Vodafone is going for a single-homed transit for all its existing peering behind Inter.link. Now, it appears Vodafone expects other networks to become Inter.link customers if they want to send traffic to Vodafone. Maybe I'm not fully clued in on what Vodafone wants to do and maybe the press releases aren't clear enough, but it sounds like Vodafone wants to force all other networks to become inter.link customers and pay Vodafone for private peering. This is like Deutsche Telekom messing with its Dutch peering a few years back and routing everything through Frankfurt without an announcement. This broke the Internet for their Dutch customers (link in the comments). This feels to me like a similar move. It appears to be at least as heavy handed as interconnection to Deutsche Telekom or Swisscom. However, I assume smarter people than me have thought this through, so what am I missing? Vodafone says: "By utilising the Inter.link system, called FlexPeer, instead of traditional physical internet exchanges, third-party providers can efficiently scale capacity into Vodafone’s fixed and mobile access networks as needed to serve their customers across Europe." and "Vodafone aims to migrate all traffic in Germany from existing Internet Exchange Points to the new system by the end of 2025." #fairshare #interconnection #transit #RIPE
