The presumed draft you're unhappy about (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-vixie-dns-rpz/) is informational. It is not a standard. > RPZ will destroy the Internet - people are lazy (i am lazy also) Actually, it is the people who do stuff that makes RPZ a solution that are destroying the Internet.

Yow. RPZ is a tool. You don't like that tool? Don't use it. You care about the "truth"? Do your own DNSSEC validation. Personally, I'd prefer a world where there are fewer tools that are well described, even if some times those tools may be used in ways that I don't agree with, than in a world of a myriad of tools, poorly described, all trying to solve the same problem (using a solution I may not agree with), doing it in ways that are incompatible. Or do you think that by refusing to document something that it magically goes away?
