Dear Guru(s),


I am seeking advice concerning someone else announcing IRR records on
resources belonging to me.
[I was referred to this mailing list from the DNS-OARC community.]

Context:
I have already registered all my IP address blocks with ROA/RPKI
[evidence:
https://stat.ripe.net/widget/as-routing-consistency#w.resource=AS9411]
However, HE reports a lot of spurious IRR records on my resources
[example: https://bgp.he.net/net/158.108.0.0/16#_irr]

Question #1:
Should I worry about those spurious records [Yes | No | Depends]?
My fear is that other sites might accept those records without checking and
thus be misled somewhere else, since ROV is not yet the
behavior-in-majority.
My other reasoning is that, if we are not going to keep accurate records,
why bother keeping them at all anyway.

Question #2:
What can I do about it [in case the answer to Question #1 is Yes]?
Should I notify those Database Admins? Will they consider me a nuisance?
And most importantly: Will they erase those records for me, or will they
just ignore me?

Question #3:
Did I not do something that can prevent those spurious records from
happening in the first place?
And, anything I can do now to prevent it from ever happening again?


Thanks in advance for your advice(s),

Pirawat.
