I submit that eventually a series of private roots will emerge whose
principal desire will be exactly the opposite, to NOT be visible to
the rest of the internet so eventually "like minded individuals" will
co-agulate into groups to form hidden roots like .xxx, .lolita, .kkk,
.bet, .warez and so on.
In fact this may have already happened, there would be no way to know
except by accident. I would bet someone like the Cult of the Dead Cow
would create something like .cDc for the hacker elite, it would actually
be kinda cool in their case. :)
