Sign prefixes is the best way.
Before sign all prefixes, it is better if we have a detection service.

Only a imprecisely detection.

Section III.C in our paper
http://argus.csnet1.cs.tsinghua.edu.cn/static/Argus.FIST11.pdf

A brief explanation is:
If an anomalous AS path hijacked a prefix,
I can get replies in normal route-server, and can not get reply in abnormal
route-servers.

Here we only consider hijackings that black-hole the prefix.
If a hijacking doesn't black-hole the prefix (i.e., redirect, interception,
...), is hard to detect :(

I think network operators are only careless, but not trust-less,
so black-hole hijacking is the majority case.

Sorry for my poor English :(
What I want to say is, RPKI is really good,
Argus is just an alternative,
before we can protect ourself using signatures,
honestly :-)
