Proof of ownership; when someone demands you remove a prefix

How about signed ownership ? (https://keybase.io) if you are able to update the record … and it is able to be signed then shouldn’t that be proof enough of ownership of the ASN ?

If you can update a forward DNS record then you can have the reverse record updated in the same sort of fashion and signed by a third party to provide first party of authoritative ownership… Assuming you have an assigned ASN and the admin has taken the time to let alone understand the concept and properly prove the identity in the first place… (EV cert ?)


Just a light opinion from … https://jhackenthal.keybase.pub

Trust is a big issue these days and validation even worse given SSL trust.
