https://rpki-monitor.antd.nist.gov/ I've asked many people and many companies why adoption remains so low, and why their own companies aren't doing RPKI. I've gotten the usual assortment of utterly lame excuses, but the one that I have had the hardest time trying to counter is the one where a network engineer says to me "Well, ya know, we were GOING to do that, but then ARIN... unlike the other four regional authorities... demanded that we sign some silly thing indemnifying them in case of.... something. Interestingly enough, those same indemnification clauses are in the registration services agreement that they already signed but apparently they were not an issue at all when requesting IP address space or receiving a transfer. You might want want to ask them why they are now a problem when they weren’t before (Also worth noting that many of these ISP's own contracts with their customers have rather similar indemnification clauses.) Even so, we at ARIN are in the midst of a Board-directed review of the RPKI legal framework to see if any improvements can be made <https://www.arin.net/vault/participate/meetings/reports/ARIN_43/PDF/PPM/curran_rpki.pdf> – I will provide further updates once it is completed.
