Maybe someone could publish a blacklist of vulnerable recursive
name servers, and then F-Root, the other root name servers,
and other "popular" sites could start refusing to answer queries
from vunerable name servers until after the blacklist operator decides
they've patched their recursive server sufficiently?
Maybe that would get their attention and encourage them to apply
resources to the problem?
Extreme situations justify extreme measures; or how extreme do
you believe justifies what measures?
