Agreed! If you break your own stuff, that's your own problem and does not raise any of SiteFinder's issues. Even if an ISP uses this service, people can still usually find another ISP or point their computers at other DNS servers.
I see no redeeming features of the service, or did I miss something?
I'm not arguing it's a good idea. I'm just saying it's not evil like SiteFinder. -- Steve Sobol, Professional Geek ** Java/VB/VC/PHP/Perl ** Linux/*BSD/Windows Apple Valley, California PGP:0xE3AE35ED It's all fun and games until someone starts a bonfire in the living room.
