When we refer to a major routing leak, we often describe it simply with a single number: the number of unique prefixes mistakenly announced. However, this one-dimensional view of a complex incident obscures the fact that not every leaked route is in circulation for the same amount of time or propagated by the same number of ASes.

This talk will review major routing incidents from recent years and illustrate what this new approach to analyzing routing incidents reveals.
