No. Cox has to provision your connection for Internet service and add
your modem to the allowed list. Free DNS servers does not equal free
Internet.

Could I go out and purchase a modem, hook it up to a coax connected
to the cable system (which is being paid for), and then have free
internet

They are public? How do you mean; they are free to use? If that is
so how do you access them?

Those are probably the best known public DNS servers on the 'net. My
memory is a little fuzzy but from what I remember reading years back,
they were some of the original DARPA DNS servers. They then got
passed
between several network companies, always remaining public. At some
point, they were owned by Verizon and Level 3... one or both might
still
own them.
They've been popular for several reasons:
1. Public
2. Very fast
3. Been around possibly since before the Internet was the Internet
