Searching Continental Internet Exchange only brings up AI generated articles for me. Worse, some articles may be confusing DE-CIX projects with an African Union led effort to keep internet traffic local, as shown in this article from eurweb.

Edit: on second thought it seems the "Continental Internet Exchanges" they're talking about are the centers established by DE-CIX which stands for "Deutsche Commercial Internet Exchange"
