> tier 1 seems consistent with Cogents refusal.

one does not become a tier 1 by refusing to peer. an actual tier 1 will
of course most of the time refuse  settlement-free interconnection with
smaller actors to protect their revenue stream, but the traffic volumes
and short settlement-free paths to large parts of the Internet are what
make them a tier-1.

do you hear me, medium-sized swedish  isp full of clued people but with
a serious case of peering reality distorsion?
