You really should have stopped there.

Again, I get the impression, to be blunt, that you don't have a
realistic understanding of how typical patterns of authoritative
nameservice data and caching work. Spend some time logging and
studying your recursive nameserver's traffic to TLD nameservers given
caching and try to estimate how revealing that data is.

You seem to think "very revealing". In which case, plainly there is no
basis for further discussion, and I wish you good luck in your further
endeavours.

Nope.

You'll need to chew up someone else's time.

That's not what I said.

I'm sorry, but (1) I don't work for you, and (2) I clarified tnat
_all_ I said was that outsourcing recursive DNS to OpenNIC recursive
servers was a bad idea for the same reason outsourcing it to anyone else
is.

You ignored that, and are now wasting your time and mine. I am ending
that.


> So, here are the good points about opennic.

Irrelevant to what I said. Which fact you are ignoring, and thus
wasting my and everyone else's time. I am ending (at least) the former.
