And it is true that _if_ you decide to use their DNS, you are leaving even more traces at Googles side. I also agree that net neutrality is more than independent DNS. <br /><br />But DNS is one crucial piece. From the technical side of this: I didn&#39;t have a fast and reliable alternative to my provider&#39;s DNS up until now. BTW I have quicker replies from Google DNS (8.8.8.8) than from my provider&#39;s DNS. This may be due to the fact that I live next to Frankfurt-Fechenheim. Here in Germany providers did (and still do) manipulate DNS queries and I have issues relying on them. <br /><br />From the political side, I wouldn&#39;t try explain my standpoint - since I am somewhat of a fanboy ;) But I do want to say that I mainly base my speculations on their actions and the compare it to other companies. And as I currently see it, network neutrality is a commercial interest of Google.Reubenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03164802415656014190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9038503772276736154.post-29625018336109008912009-12-06T10:08:41.278+01:002009-12-06T10:08:41.278+01:00I totally disagree. Net neutrality is more about Internet providers throtteling network traffic based on protocols and destination networks than preventing users from accessing illegal sites through DNS redirections.<br />And we all know what Google&#39;s interest is? Never ever will I use their DNS services. And everyone who does is far away from understanding net neutrality.<br /><br />I am a C hackerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
