Duh... subverting DNS servers is the fastest, easiest way to shut down the internet. Who runs their own DNS servers? hehe...
And there isn't any push to do distributed DNS in the underground... is there?
And seriously... Protocol 303? Watch spy movies much?

The protocols govern shutting down wireless networks to prevent the remote detonation of bombs. What has that got to do with the internet ? Isn't that more to do with cell phone towers? The only thing I can see is if the explosive is connected to a compute itself. Even then, it would not be the wireless network you shut down. Is that even possible ? I can see jamming the signals, but "shutting" down a wireless network ?

The excuse they use is they are protecting us fro “terroists” who can activate bombs thru the internet but what they really want to do is keep us from communicating with each other when they start thier ball rolling

What has that got to do with the internet ? Hey, the gummint knows it only has to hang up the receiver:

Just give me some replacement addresses for root hints, and I’m in... Problem is, who’s gonna tell all the nodes and routers between here and there?

They are already testing the system on a website called Healthcare.gov and the shutdown system appears to be extremely effective.

Dear God... 300 baud acousic coupled on a rotary dial POTS. I've done that. On a pay phone with a genset running in the trunk of a Lincoln Mark IV and a VT-100 in the back seat.
Backed up into a Quiky-Mart parking lot.
Ack... that sounds like a very old and very bad novel.

Remember when it was a felony to connect directly into Ma Bell's network? And we had to use acoustic modems?
I'm feeling retrospective. I think I'll listen to some 70s music.
