I understand but there were legitimate users, of the RIPE-NONAUTH objects (those in reciept of Legacy address space) and it would serve as full and final reminder to those who legitimately used the legacy RIPE-NONAUTH objects, to get the resource holders to update / create new route objects that are authenticated and in line with best current practice. I think the risk of emailing an adversary is minimal when they cannot do much about the pending object deletion.
Resource holders that can create RPKI ROAs for LEGACY space can create IRR route objects in the RIPE IRR (and as such are not considered out-of-region, those objects are not in the RIPE-NONAUTH dataset). Resource holders that have legacy space anchored in the ARIN region can't create RPKI ROAs - so those objects would not be affected in any way anyhow. Kind regards, Job
