RIPE Community believes that the responsibility of well-functioning
Internet access including the DNS resolution is with the access
providers. We believe it should stay that way.

We understand that to be able to minimise some risks when the end
user selects a random DNS resolver, a possible and feasible solution
is to have the access provider run their local DNS resolvers and/or
an additional DNS resolver as a back-up.

We hope that the EU could allocate DNS4EU funds to the local
Internet community and encourage Internet access providers to run
their local DNS resolvers. Additionally, the funds can be also used
towards the development of open source software for better and
affordable DNS resolution services.
Generally, I agree that DNS resolution should be part of "access
service", but at the same time I'm curious how people imagine that
adding funding to the telco sector will help with DNS reliability.
Picking randomly one of the big telcos, let's see what it has to say:

see slide no. 9.
It does not suggest that access to funding might be a problem. If there
is an issue with funding DNS then it is an allocation issue withing the
company, not lack of funding, so it's hard to see how add more money on
that pile would be of any help.
Again, I'm not picking here at DT. Other big telcos report similarly
grandiose financials.
