That's not some advantage randomly conferred onto Google, though. That's how you build a fast, global DNS service. Freenom is as fast as their servers allow in

That's not some advantage randomly conferred onto Google, though. That's how you build a fast, global DNS service. Freenom is as fast as their servers allow in north western Europe (assuming they are indeed hosted in Amsterdam), but it's just not fast in the rest of the world.
- chris_wot 10y agoI've always wondered though if you could make a better, more anonymous naming service entirely. I believe GNU has one, I think IPFS has another. These are, after all, just giving a more human understandable way of proving addressing information. On Unix and Unix-like systems there is a resolver, and I would be fascinated to know how hard it would be to literally swap out or choose an entirely new name-to-IP address resolution mechanism at runtime.
