I know people have almost religious meltdown’s about such things, but when the ISP’s DNS servers actually work properly its not really an issue for your average retail home user.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">More than one small ISP doing DNS redirection, and some large ones too.
