I laughed out loud when I read about the end users not giving a rats hindquarters about what DNS is or what it does. I agree with that for sure. I opened up a free account with OpenDNS last night because I do care about DNS and the biggest reason was for filtering out of adult rated websites etc. Very good article.

The former CEO of Google is now on Obama’s team. I do not trust a business which keeps records of all searches and which is associated with any politician.

I’ve been using OpenDNS for almost a year. Yes, if a page doesn’t exist of course I get redirected, but RR did the same thing. I believe my service is a ‘little’ faster with OpenDNS.

Privacy, we all (in the IT industry) know that is almost a non-issue. All we can do is use some control over what we say and do online.

I couldn’t agree more about the average user. As long as the computer works, they can use the Internet, all is well.

Thanks for the good info Anne.

BTW, I found this on Twitter.
