One more thing: it seems that no matter what, the prefix is always reachable from AS3257 which makes the whole thing even weirder.

When I ping one of the IPs from various ISPs, I see the ICMP Echo Request and Reply on the wire, going where it’s supposed to go, but it doesn’t reach the pinging host.
