One thing I like about Google is that they research and share infrastructure technologies. Why is there any reason to think that they would not be interested in improving DNS if it makes the Internet a better place for applications?
They would likely benefit if more applications are moved to the Internet but that does not make this an "evil" or deceptive tactic. What other company today would improve an Internet protocol or create a new protocol (Wave) and release it openly in an effort to move the Internet forward?
Sure you need to be mindful of how data is used and the services you sign up for but that applies to any service, including OpenDNS.
