I have to play a bit of devil's advocate for malware. I see the constant arms race between the red and blue teams as a sort of immunization process for our technical infrastructure. Where there are weaknesses, someone will exploit them. Then someone will shore them up. Over time, I would argue malware (technically, the response to it, but there needs to be some instigating agent) improves the health of our technical infrastructure. Like how forest fires are necessary to the forest ecosystem. I expect the same will be the case for BGP hijacking. There'll be some high-profile hack (higher profile than the ones that have already happened) and finally people will get the hint and implement secure BGP like when everybody was in a panic over Heartbleed and Spectre.
