DNSSEC: Massively overhyped?

Last year I got a little fed up with the Bind (“Named”) DNS server for reasons which I’ll explain further below, and I started digging into PowerDNS. A pretty solid project for sure and it definitely has some advantages over Bind. However, due to recent changes in the project I came to conclude that managing PowerDNS had become even more tedious than Bind originally was! That’s no good, so I decided to move back and because I was giving my setup a massive overhaul anyway I also started looking into DNSSEC. A topic which was still sitting on my TODO list. Yeah… Very important according to ICANN and ISC. But is it really? I have some serious concerns…
