Ah, wasn't sure if tracert would tell the right stuff about the traffic.

So, a lot of sites I tried tracerting left out too much interesting
stuff, but I finally got one with most of the interesting stuff:

That's through Kazakhstan: probably first Almaty, then apparently
Astana and Aqtöbe.  Then a few hops in Russia and then across the
Atlantic.  With some other sites there've been some hops in Europe.

Also, traffic directed to China also goes through Russia, and
apparently Europe and even America (?!):

Totally the wrong direction, but if that's where the connections are,
okay I guess...  Though you'd think sharing a border with a country
(even if nearly impassible) would mean something.
