This post identifies a critical limitation in the current domain industry registration model that prevents automated updates of Name Server (NS) and Delegation Signer (DS) records. This manual process hinders Cloudflare's ability to provide a seamless signup experience and automate DNSSEC implementation. Cloudflare advocates for a new model where DNS operators can directly communicate with registrars and registries to automate these updates, which would improve stability, DDoS resilience, and enable broader DNSSEC adoption.
