I keep thinking it might make sense to sign non-authoritative delegation records, though it's really hard to see how we could get there from here. For instance, there isn't a flags field in RRSIG so you can't explicitly mark an RRset as being non-authoritative. > It seems the way to fix this would be to have well known recursive servers > (8.8.8.8, 1.1.1.1, 4.4.4.4, level3, opendns, etc) also offer the root > zone for AXFR. This just makes the surveillance capitalists part of your mission critical problem area, which isn't obviously an improvement.
