@dbelson Would *love* to talk one day, as I'm using CF radar in preparations for that talk in august, but also to promote the use of rpki to everyone relevant.

"Never heard of it."
"Not a problem."
"Doesn't happen to us."
"That's someone elses problem."
"Theory. Ransomware is for real, so we focus on that."
"No documented losses or problems due to lack of rpki."

I've heard other versions as well. CF Radar provide documentation on some of those, but could - imho - provide more info.

@bsdphk @SteveBellovin Granularity: Not that long since Gmail went mandatory 2FA. Processes for account recovery, forgot password & 2FA login can be excellent attack vectors, simswap makes it even more so. Even Patel is human, and humans reuse pwds across multiple services, so a compromise somewhere else may provide direct access, or increase probability of pwd spraying / credential stuffing to work.
Why should Patel be considered better than most at protecting personal accounts?

I will be presenting "Our Vulnerable Networks" at #Sikkerhetsfestivalen 2026, talking BGP & RPKI history, status & "how to get it done".

Through history back to 1989 (BGP), L0pht testifying for congress in 1998 and lots more, I will explain the problem, the gaps, current status and what we need to do to fix a global internet routing security issue that is exploited many times daily.

Thanks to @internet_nl & @ripencc for their tools & knowledge, and the @cloudflare routing radar!
