Re: [tor-relays] how important is configuring DNSSEC root trust anchor for 'unbound' running on an exit node?

Spent a few minutes activating the DNSSEC trust-anchor for 'unbound'.

Ran 'dig' on a few signed domains and observed that queries that took under 50 milliseconds without went to 2000 milliseconds with.

My attitude toward DNSSEC has deteriorated steadily over time and this finishes it off for me. It's simply not worth the cost. Many serious folk have commented in detail on what a horror show it is.

Disabled it on the exit.

Without DNSSEC, 'unbound' has been reporting:
