Generally these decisions are not made by CEOs. They are made by powerhungry network architects at NANOG shindigs. You can picture the scene, vendor sponsored "Cocktail Parties" with bad 80's music, a 1990's wardrobe and ZERO women. These dudes strike up their lovely peering deals after they are wasted on 2 Bud lights, of course they can remove this privilege in heart-beat if you diss their hardware, or top-post on their mailing list.
