@freci@piaille.fr @dalias@hachyderm.io Google always argues with round-trips, latency, etc. Adam Langley also wrote this about DANE back in 2015: we probably still wouldn’t implement this aspect of DANE because each extra lookup is more latency and another chance for packet loss to cause an expensive timeout and retransmit. It was a decade ago, yet 15 years into Google Ads filling the web with ads, burning bandwidth, latency and adding round-trips. Whenever I see arguments by Google in context of #DNSSEC, I assume it’s in bad faith. @stiiin@infosec.space @SRAZKVT@tech.lgbt
