Tom, Bill Woodcock announced a framework around this concept on NANOG back in March of 2022. https://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2022-March/218056.html The linked document discusses manipulation of RPKI records specifically: https://www.pch.net/resources/Papers/Multistakeholder-Imposition-of-Internet-Sanctions.pdf " A manipulation of RPSL and RPKI records in centralized registries would flow through to all networks employing these common routing security mechanisms, some of which would then automatically stop routing traffic to and from the specified networks, without affecting other “adjacent” civilian networks or being subject to trivial “workarounds.”" The opinion of that section of the document, at the time it was published, appears to be that fiddling with RPKI in that way constitutes and "unacceptable risk". However simple incrementalism will have that opinion changed as soon as it is more politically palatable. The fact that these frameworks are seriously proposed at all is the chilling part IMHO.
