glances over at Ajit Pai Nobody.
It doesn't need government intervention. It needs other companies to hold them accountable.

Verizon's response seems very non-committal and it appears this type of incident may happen again if they don't take any action. Are there ways for companies like Google or Cloudflare to work around ISPs like Verizon without affecting ISP customers, or is this a blocker? Was the 10% of the re-routed traffic from Cloudflare 100% of the traffic from Verizon to Cloudflare?
It's worse than that. BGP provides the "map" of the Internet. That map is relayed from network to network. So, as a result, Verizon announcing a bad route can mess up the map not just for them but for any other network that connects to them (directly or indirectly). We're actually fortunate at Cloudflare because of our scale and wide-spread interconnection. That limited the impact more than it would have for a smalle…
Long ago, in the mists of time when I was a wee lad, the internet was a simpler place. There were seven buttons around the world, all pressed down by volunteers. If any four of them were released, the world would end. “The world” was defined as “the internet”, and at the time that meant “the world” was defined as “men with beards and suspenders and real opinions about Star Trek”, and so that wasn’t so bad. Today in 2…

Works from the ATL DC, what is the airport code that shows up on https://cloudflare-test.judge.sh/#shadow.tech ? Might be a local [maybe routing] issue with CF -> shadow's web server.
Not working here either (Finland), that page shows HEL for me. shadow.tech shows "Error 1020 Ray ID: 4ec1c24b2a945b25 • 2019-06-24 21:22:45 UTC Access denied What happened? This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks."
I guess best course of action for those who want to access the site is to tweet them https://twitter.com/shadow_official with your Ray ID.

Absolutely. If you are a Verizon service provider customer, please call them and register your feelings on this matter. Make sure you let them know in no uncertain terms that you are considering switching providers based on their lack of following best practices.
Verizon's lucky it's a blog post that doesn't mince words, rather than a lawsuit.
Can they get a lawsuit?. Has Verizon broken their SLA?. Is there a manual to mitigate all the edge cases? What about being aware internally this had to be improved but it was delayed due bureaucracy.
