What happened
Cloudflare published an analysis of the adoption of RFC 9234, which enables routers to reject route leaks using BGP Roles and the Only to Customer attribute. The company measured deployment across the Internet and unexpectedly found two Tier 1 networks stripping the OTC attribute. This indicates that some major networks are not yet fully compliant with the standard.
