I think this has been posted here more than a few dozen times. Perhaps a list of sites/Nocs that do not automate their updates could be kept so:
1. People would have a list of phone numbers to call every time a change was made.
2. People would have a list of sites that were known to be of less clue than most. This might help them make purchasing decisions in the future.
Hmmmm, one wonders if the static security template has over time become responsible for more realized loss of connectivity than the attacks it theoretically protects against. Perhaps it should be distributed with only a martian and RFC1918 filter, and not the unallocated space, if everybody knows that people apply it in a write once configuration manner.
