Looks like 12956 is announcing some /8s to every peer and transit. Worse still, Sprint and GX are propagating it. This is not the first time that Telefonica has leaked a lot of garbage routes with serious network impact as a result (nor is it the second or third, actually).

12.0.0.0/8
64.0.0.0/8
65.0.0.0/8
I'd say both GX and Sprint have a lot to answer for right about now.

Looks like 26210 is originating the prefixes and Telefonica is happily passing them along to the world, at least some portion of which is glad to go along for the ride.

Q. How does the Internet work?
A. Spit and glue.
