+1 Amazing to see people deeply involved in ICANN, still not understand how the DNS works. At large needs some professionals, not some conspiracy theorists ;) Now waiting for JFC or Jefssey to post, for another world of ammazement... ----- Original Message ----- From: "John R.

This kind of technocentric approch is interesting, because it's highlights the net neutrality issue and the seperation of the Internet and the GoogleNet.
Google's Engineering Takeover of the Internet -- No "slow" DNS needed on GooglesNet
I must say, this is an impressively hysterical misrepresentation and overreaction to Google's providing what is no more and no less than yet another public DNS cache. If Google is taking over the net, so is OpenDNS and everyone else who deliberately or accidentally leaves his DNS cache open the the public. There are plenty of things about Google that one might object to, but this is just silly. R's, John
