  - 'To select target router IPs, we leverage two complementary public router datasets:
    the RIPE Atlas traceroutes dataset [43] and the ITDK dataset [11].'
  - "In addition to IP level traceroute data, we also use the router topology from
    CAIDA’s February 2022 ITDK [11]."

  sentences:
  - 'Note that while our analysis utilizes the CAIDA AS relationships in order to
    identify policy-compliant transit ASes, such inferences may be limited by the
    available data and the visibility of all AS paths toward a given AS. '
  - '[12] CAIDA. 2022. AS Relationships. https://publicdata.caida.org/datasets/as-relationships/serial-1/.'
  - Next, we use the CAIDA AS relationship dataset [12] to find AS paths where these
    vendor homogeneous ASes serve as transit ASes.
