Not if the page itself contains the time it was last updated (IMO all status pages should have this, IPFS or not). Then you could still get outdated information, but you'd be able to tell.



Even with a last update time on the page, how would you know whether that was really the latest update? You'd also need to know the update schedule.


Procedurally; since updating IPNS records is free it's pretty straightforward to continuously deploy a tree.

What's obnoxious about that is that existing IPFS daemons aren't really good at managing multiple identities so if you have multiple trees to maintain you're left writing custom software or using docker containers.
