[arin-ppml] Cogent using IPv4 as collateral for borrowing money

[Martin Hannigan]

I’m not worried about network or real estate assets. Plenty of trash still
running tax free and delivering high margin service everywhere. Cogent is
not unique or a standout.

Personally, I love their new Sprint/TMo real estate. Wish I could get a
call back on it.

YMMV,
