Let's not forget the core shakiness and trust-based nature of BGP will be our ultimate safeguard against an AGI takeover.
Lack of authentication, inherent vulnerabilities to route hijacks and leaks, and reliance on mutual trust rather than verification...If AGI tries to assert global dominance, BGP will be the fail-safe 'red button' to prevent an AI apocalypse.
- Vecr 2y agoIs that actually better than just cutting power to all Internet infrastructure?
- delfinom 2y agoRKPI/ROA uptake is now at 50% which is pretty significant increase in just 2 years. https://radar.cloudflare.com/routing https://radar.cloudflare.com/routing Unfortunately BGP will probably be mostly solid in a few more years. At least solid enough among countries with caring ISPs. Prime for the AGI pickings.
- iscoelho 2y agoRPKI/ROA does not solve BGP hijacking [1]: "Even with RPKI validation enforced, a BGP actor could still impersonate your origin AS and advertise your BGP route through a malicious router configuration." It also would not have prevented the bulk of this issue (as the next AS Path was "1031 262504 267613 13335", and would have been accepted by RPKI) so I am confused why Cloudflare claims it to be the solution. Perhaps Cloudflare's own engineers forgot that RPKI is still insecure? [1] https://blog.cloudflare.com/rpki-details https://blog.cloudflare.com/rpki-details
