Re: Not happening on Earthlink Cable Customers

There is something you just don't do as an internet company. Screwing with DNS in any way is one of them. When will companies learn that when you mess with DNS, you get blacklisted.

Same bullcrap was tried by Verisign and they got bitch slapped for it. I know of many people in the IT field that said, "not so fast verisign, we will just blacklist your effing DNS servers"

If you want to try this internet companies, setup an alternate DNS and allow people to manually change their DNS to your "i'm a location bar typing noob" DNS servers. DO NOT MAKE THIS THE DEFAULT!!@!
