Surprised a company of their scale and with such a reliance on stability isn't running their own data centres. I guess they were trusting their failover process enough not to care
They probably need to be in so many different locations, and so many different network nodes, that they don't want to consolidate like that. Their whole point of being is to be everywhere, on every backbone node, to have minimum latency to as many users as possible.
This sounds like a core datacetre though?
