Very nice, I might give OpenDNs another try as my backup DNS server now. I hate NXDOMAIN hijacking with a passion.

>This experience is one of the only reasons people cite to not use OpenDNS.

Yep, because people care about their privacy. I'm surprised OpenDNS didn't notice this before. I will probably start recommending them again now; after all, almost anyone is better to trust with something like DNS than google.




They obviously noticed and knew but did not care, as stated in the post OpenDNS is a revenue oriented company as such they're going after the money which for a service nobody's going to pay money for means going the "make them pay with their privacy " way a.k.a. ads.
