Nothing it says is specifically wrong, but the article just recycles the usual academic bias and preconeptions about the DNS. It skips over the reality that the vast majority of domain names are registered by legal entities, not people, and doesn't even consider the extent to which WHOIS info is used (or at least was used when it was available) to protect phishing and other attacks against individuals privacy and security. -- Regards, John Levine, [email protected], Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. https://jl.ly _______________________________________________ dns-privacy mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dns-privacy
