| Confidential agreement?
Confidential agreement? Ummm...anyone else smell sexual activities? The only reason why it would be "confidential" is because they are hiding something.
Sorry, the sexual refrence is from the title "Cogent, Sprint Kiss, Make Up" and in the article "...how simple carrier lovers' quarrels...".

| Confidential because Cogent wanted settlement-free but didn't get it. Sprint, for its part, likely agreed to accept some subset of what it would charge for transit to do a paid peering arrangement. Cogent saves face, Sprint gets paid. Everyone's happy. |

Sprint got zilch and doesn't want to advertise it..
It was Sprint customers who requested Content from servers hosted on Cogent connectivity.. |
