same_as_liveindicates whether the object at "query_time" is identical to the current live object. Only applicable for RIPE DB objects. Possible values: "yes", "no" or null. null indicates there has been no comparison with the live object and it is therefore unknown. This can be because the mechanism is switched off ("compare_with_live" query option), or it's an object outside the RIPE database.
