The recommendation was for registries to provide a preview of the next day's zone. A preview can reduce the amount of protective data required, and increase the timeframe alloted to push correlated threat information to the edge. This correlated threat information can act in a preemptive fashion to provide a significant improvement in security. This added level of protection can help defeat expected and even unexpected threats that are becoming far too common as well.

OK, I understand this, but the previously-expressed comments about unintentional/undesirable consequences and not addressing the actual cause of the problem (inadequate and/or inefficient credit card processing and inefficient business processes), as well as the comments regarding practicalities and so forth, haven't really been addressed (pardon the pun), IMHO.
