Sometimes nannies are good things. yes, nannies are 'sometimes' good things, but for some people BAD nannies are sometimes even better :) Are you thinking of the Nanny from Queen's Fat Bottomed Girls?

People without the wherewithal or interest in managing their own security likely are in need of a nanny. again, dnssec already protects users, it just needs wider adoption, which is the issue.. .as for "shared" domains like outlook.com - abuse management costs will increase? - which is probably why dnssec has never caught on, it is not "sexy" (like some nannies...)
I have had mixed luck with DNSSEC from the point of view of internal implementation and have fallen back to SEC-less.
it has always served me well enough and I have written some implementation papers some years ago... I am sooo lazy I also wrote a whole bunch of programs that does everything for me automagically. so it just works and keeps on working (it also does the epp & everything with the registry.. on some tld the epp/xml/whatever to the registrar - if I am not the registrar) - yep, I am ultimately SUPER lazy...
As a side story. DNS(bind) has been SO reliable over the years that people have not upgraded their software. A month or so ago a few customers had their DNS partly break because the old DNSSEC root keys were removed. The solution was to turn off DNSSEC till they were able to upgrade the software.
anyway, i am probably a minority as i also do not like/use/support very popular and world dominating services such as 'whatsapp' and i do not tweet or post photos of my food on insta and i have zero tiktok vids I have a feeling your take is not a minority on this list. ooh, warm & fuzzies to you too, I have a home *sigh* :)
Ya. Safe at home some times feels like locked in trying to avoid the zombie apocalypse.
soon, very soon, we shall be released from captivity - at least your geo is less restrictive than mine. mine has guns and no roses :)
