Thanks Job. Though I wasn???t thinking (or caring) about github crapware. I was thinking about stuff that might have been written for internal use -- say at an ISP -- and would only show up whenever these scripts or whatever made queries for ns-v6.ripe.net.
I would say that such software needs to be broken, often, and hard.
I agree Gert. Though before we do that, it would be good to know what’ll break and what the impact of that will be*. Probably not much in this case. However better safe than sorry. * Consider the risk mitigation effort that had to be done when it emerged there was active cruft that couldn’t handle the root KSK rollover.
