Networks observed one and two hops upstream of AS8966 in real AS paths. A thicker line means more vantage points saw that adjacency, so weight tracks how well attested it is — not how much traffic it carries. Adjacency is an observation; whether it is a transit purchase or a settlement-free peering is an inference, and is labelled as one wherever we show it.
