Hi
The current set of trust anchors distributed by RIPE NCC
(<https://www.ripe.net/projects/disi/keys/ripe-ncc-dnssec-keys-new.txt>)
includes the domains
disi.nl
example.net
pwei.net
None of these currently have any DNSSEC resource records (i.e. they
are insecure), which effectively brakes those zones for everybody who
uses that particular set of trust anchors.
I guess this shows one of the operational problems with trust anchor
management. These zones are not maintained by RIPE NCC itself and the
administrators probably didn't bother to tell them that they've
disabled DNSSEC (if they know or remember at all that their keys are
distributed by a third party). I guess it would be more prudent for
RIPE NCC to only distribute the keys for their own zones (those listed
on <https://www.ripe.net/projects/disi//keys/>).
