Except that the internet is not just the web.

DNS has a purpose. Returning a failure code for a non existent domain is a requirement for DNS. Verizon breaks this.
Would you feel any better about this if the "DNS tinkering" only kicks in on queries for names that begin with 'www.' and are of the 'A' record type?
