I am currently announcing only my aggregate routes, but I have lately

announcing more specifics from my space.
The best solution for an emergency response to that (that I can think
of), is registering all of the /24's that make up my network, so if
someone should announce a more-specific, I can always announce the most
specific that would be accepted (assuming they don't announce the /24's
too, it should be a problem avoided)

Does anyone else have any other ideas on ways to quickly deal with
someone else announcing your more specifics, since contacting their NOC
is likely going to take a long time...

Seems like a remarkable waste of time and IRR resources. That is why NOCs
exist, so you can contact them quickly and make those announcements stop.
