Routing Disruptions & Throttling Patterns

Routing events are derived from public BGP collectors and cross-checked with latency metrics.

BGP withdrawal timeline

Number of withdrawn prefixes per 30-minute interval.

Routing disruption details

Summary of notable routing anomalies aligned with connectivity drops.

Confidence 0.74 (Medium)

Attribution Summary

Attribution statements are cautious and evidence-linked. Confidence reflects corroboration across sources.

Routing control indicators

Aligned withdrawal spikes and centralized routing signals.

Confidence 0.78

Observed route withdrawals suggest coordinated routing controls affecting international reachability. Evidence points to cooperation among upstream providers, though intent is not inferred.

View evidence Verify manifest hash

Throttling behavior

Consistent latency variance and throughput caps.

Confidence 0.66

Throughput reductions align with evening hours across multiple ASNs. Patterns are consistent with traffic shaping, but alternatives remain plausible.

Compare to baselines Verify manifest hash

DNS reliability

Intermittent failures on resolver infrastructure.

Confidence 0.53

DNS resolution failures may be linked to filtering or infrastructure strain. Additional corroboration required before stronger attribution.
