assuming accuracy of records, etc...  ;-)

or courtesy of both AS43659 (who was peering with and announcing the prefix to)
and AS29632 (who was then accepting and announcing to its upstreams)?  seems to
be an interesting relationship between the two (2) of them; along with an even
more interesting relationship/affiliation between AS43659 and AS57166 - and the
upstream for both the ASNs is/was AS29632 (NetAssist LLC).  ;-)

   - AS57166 UA-D2INVESTUKRAINE-AS, UA; D2 International Investment Ukraine Ltd.
   - AS43659 BUDREMYER-AS, UA; D2 International Investment Ukraine Ltd.

SAME EMAIL/ABUSE CONTACTS (and address) for both ASNs (AS43659 and AS57166):
   - EMAIL CONTACTS: abuse at etthua.net; d2invest at meta.ua; support at etthua.net
   - ABUSE CONTACTS: abuse at etthua.net
