Hello Yu Fu,

I was not at the workshop. Warren already mentioned some issues. I second what 
he is saying in a stronger terms:

+ What you are proposing has no value for optimizing content delivery on the 
Internet. Physical location and the topology of content delivery do not match. 
Also, Anycast is used. It is NOT expensive. The reason why so many CDN operator 
use DNS based tools for content delivery is granularity of action. An edge 
compute system (i.e. what many CDNs are) can do all sorts of checks via DNS 
approach vs an Anycast approach.

Also, the ECS security assessment if off. ECS from the resolver to the aDNS is 
sending a subnet configured by the operator of the rDNS. Once the connection to 
the client to the CDN is made, the CDN operator has the full details of the 
client. The term “leak client subnet to AUTH” is misleading from a “privacy 
risk.” Once the connection is made to my CDN, I know the IP specifics. 

+ What you are proposing has great value for Law Enforcement and State 
Security. It would cut out the Operator as the middle man and eliminate the 
need for a court order to release details on suspects. 

This also is a tool for criminals. I can easily see bad guys who are dropping 
ransomware use this as a tool to say “pay up or I’ll SWAT your house” or move 
from E-mail exertion threats to phone based threats.
