Citations of cases, please.  I don't believe either of those claims is
true, except in the obvious sense that peering is voluntary and some
carriers are unwilling to peer with others if there's not a fair
trade.  (If the proposal is that more-connected carriers have to
subsidize development of infrastructure in less-connected regions in
order to increase fairness, I want to know why that is something the
carriers have to do.  That sounds like international aid to me.)

Best,

A
