The idea that these entirely ordinary uses of DNS constitute as "DNS abuse" is ridiculous. Sure, maybe phishing and botnets are bad. (Just like maybe daily stormer, kiwifarms and reddit are bad). They're still all perfectly ordinary DNS users, they're not "abusing" DNS. A botnet using botnet.com to find the IP address of the C&C server is no different than everyone else using google.com to find the IP address of the search engine.
