The bigger issue is DNS troubleshooting.....what a nightmare when a query
of the *.gtld-servers.net servers does not return an error.  What happens
when they change the IP because of null-route'ing of the current IP to a
completely different /8 subnet.
Anyone wanna patch BIND such that replies of that IP addy are replaced with NXDOMAIN? That solves the web site and the spam problem, and all others, all at once.
