Dear Maxi, ROAs are created and maintained by resource holders for the Internet number resources they hold. Any changes to ROAs are automatically updated and reflected in the repository. The RIPE NCC has no involvement here and does not need to "inject" ROAs on purpose [1]. We have never received a request to "inject" or modify ROAs. You can see how we would respond to such a request in "Handling Requests for Information, Orders and Investigations from Law Enforcement Agencies" here: https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-675 <https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-675> According to this process, we will only comply with a request if we receive a Dutch court order served by a Dutch law enforcement agency, or a binding order from law enforcement or regulatory authorities that are operating as required under Dutch criminal or administrative law. Each order will be evaluated on its own merits. If an order is considered illegal or of a non-obligatory nature, the RIPE NCC will not comply with it and will challenge it either before the authority giving the order or before a civil or criminal court, depending on the specific circumstances. Regards, Athina Fragkouli Chief Legal Officer RIPE NCC

Dear fellow Members, Dear RIPE Team,
We currently discuss a somehow strange thing.
Could the RIPE NCC be forced to inject false ROAs (e.g. for censorship)? If so, is there any legal framework for it?
Does the RIPE NCC have any information on attempts?
Best, Maxi
