We've seen this one before... BGP doesn't (usually) look at link utilization, just link status and maybe that the BGP connection doesn't time out, but even a massively overloaded connection tends to have room for BGP pings, so it's less netsplit and more blackhole.

I don't think BGP hijacks is really the way to acheive this one.
