I'd actually go for keeping the A RR for '*.net.' and '*.com.' in
an authoritative NS's cache.  If any other A RR matches the
cached IP address(es), nuke the RRSet and replace with NXDOMAIN.

Until then, I guess it's time to null route and check for
circumvention.  Is AS30060 used for anything legitimate?
