Technical people need to make the business case to management for RKPI
by laying out what it would cost to implement (equipment, resources,

themselves against hijacks. By taking this step, I believe RPKI will
become viewed by non-technical decision makers as a 'Cloudflare
initiative' instead of a 'good of the internet' initiative, especially
by some companies who compete with Cloudflare in the CDN space.
I believe that will change the calculus and make it a more difficult
sell for technical people to get resources approved to make it happen.
If i am not wrong, for most routers implementing RPKI means spinning up
VM
with RPKI cache that need significant tinkering?
I guess it is a blocker for many, unless some "ready made" solutions
offered
by vendors.
Also, if ISP configure his router and it did crashed because he
installed
some "no warranty whatsoever" software from cloudflare github, what is
next?
I guess this might be not welcome in support contracts.
P.S. Sorry for previous post top-posted. Just by mistake hit "Send"
