Akamai is (at least in RIPE space) now having the same problem. They 
used to announce the /32 from somewhere and additional /48s, so at least 
the traffic went somewhere. They dropped the /32 now, so everyone 
filtering strict has no route to Akamai anymore.

FWIW, I'm talking about 2a02:26f0::/32. There are Akamai clusters in ISP 
PA space that still work of course.
