Hi Steve,

Tim offered no suggestion for a different term, which is not helpful.

   the suggestion was "unwanted".
I reread Tim's message; I don't interpret it as having suggested "unwanted" as an alternative. What I see is Tim noting that the changes are unwanted by the INR holder. That's true, but the term evocative, i.e., it fails to communicate the fact that the changes adversely effect the INR holder.
I just had a brief look into "Internet Security Glossary, Version 2"
(https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4949), "corrupted" could be an
alternative but I suppose it's still not light version.
Corruption usually implies an unauthorized change, an integrity violation. Suppression of an update to the RPKI repository system would not be accurately characterized as corruption, yet it is one of the actions we consider.
