Re: DNS Hijacking by Cox

Hi!

Agreed. If you're savvy enough to have a problem because of this, you're
savvy enough to a) Use another set of DNS servers or b) Use your own local
resolver.

Oh. And when they implement Plan B (inspecting each DNS packet for
IRC.* and substituting their own answer as a reply), then what?
Whats next, will they also start proxy'ing your favorite bank on DNS so they can track cc info?

OTOH, lets do the same with spamvertized sites ... ;)

Bye,
Raymond.
