I, for one, would not be in favor of an authoritarian rule over DNS, or any other Internet system, to "ensure that the state of [the] service[s] is running as it should." I suppose one could view such an authoritarian rule over (sub) systems to be a good thing, as in there is someone to complain to when things don't work, but recent events show that it is also easily abused. I much rather prefer the current cooperative administration of the Internet. Thanks, Fred Reimer On 6/20/13 6:39 PM, "Phil Fagan" <philfagan@gmail.com> wrote:
....at what point is the Internet a piece of infrastructure whereby we actually need a way to watch this thing holistically as it is one system and not just a bunch of inter-jointed systems? Who's job is it to do nothing but ensure that the state of DNS and other services is running as it should....who's the clearing house here.
