Hello,
We have noticed that from our Cogent link (as well as from ALL U.S.
based points we tested via the Cogent Looking Glass:
http://www.cogentco.com/en/network/looking-glass), traceroutes to
8.8.8.8 and 8.8.5.5 all seem to go over to Europe:

The routes from our backup carrier stay state-side and result in ~30ms
ping times. Through Cogent, the ping times are around ~164ms
What is going on here? Can someone from Cogent chime in on this?
