@gharbeia @aral @EUCommission I mean, #OpenNIC works as an alternative rootzone, and #NameDotSpace allegedly failed at sueing #ICANN for their monopoly.

As for #certificates, @cacert iron'd out that ages ago...

@0xF21D @fusl granted #ICANN has enough resources to actually deal with misconfigred shite pointing at their A-ROOT DNS server...

As for #OpenNIC, I do recommend them because they are stable and have a good track record...

@Blort @emc @miah

Use #OpenNIC!

@0xF21D no, unless you account for #datacenters and #OpenNIC members like @fusl ...

@miah never did!

I use #OpenNIC:

@codinghorror @trending_bot Related, longer-term thought, in case it interests you: getting @letsencrypt to work with @opennic would put us on a path to set domain names free from the commercial system (after which we could try to get the EU to force browsers to support OpenNIC natively).

@zbrando @morrick @ueeu You’re not wrong.

But, looking ahead, we can do so much better than the commercial domain name system.

Commercial domain names are a gold standard example of artificial scarcity. A domain name registrar cost next to nothing to operate. It’s tiny rows of text in a database. It could easily be free to own your own domain name – a huge part of what constitutes identity – on the Internet.

In fact, a non-commercial service has been operational for 24 years. It would be trivial to regulate that browsers in the EU implement support for it and work together with, say, @letsencrypt to ensure it can handle TLS.

That would be an amazing addition to the commons and a future-proof way forward that we could lead on with next to no investment.

@root consider #OpenNIC and several "free" #ccTLDs...

@marreg @CCC dass keiner die #DNS-Server der #ISP|s nutzen sollte dürfte angesichts der #Zensur durch diese mitsamt der #Contentmafia (#CUII) klar sein...

• Hab' deshalb auch ne kontinuierlich upgedatete Liste an DNS-Servern wo ich auch Einträge rausnehme wenn diese Inhalte manipulieren.

Meine Empfehlung ist und bleibt #OpenNIC weil die grundsolide sind.

• Unabhängig davon propagiere ich seit langem konsequent @torproject / #TorBrowser zu nutzen.

Dass #Verfassungstreue notwendig sein müsste um ins Amt zu kommen beweist die #NSAfD, denn die wäre dann auch konsequent verboten!

@pulkomandy Why don't you use #OpenNIC domains as alias? They're free. https://wiki.opennic.org/opennic/dot/geek

@ForiamCJ @hkrn nothing new.

#CUII are just a shitshow and this reminds me.of #BPjMleaks way before that #Copyrightmafia - based #SelfCensorship.

• Just keep using #OpenNIC as DNS Servers...

@JeGr @jherazob @noodle personally I use multiple providers and even networks and swiftly remove those that obey #Cyberfacism as a matter of principle.

Personally I prefer #OpenNIC because they have evidenced that they have integrity!

@JeGr @noodle I think #OpenNIC has a good track record in terms of stability and integrity.

The beauty is that I can setup stuff to query two dozen services at once and circumvent censorship easily.

• And yes I did delist #Quad9 when they obeyed the #Copyrightmafia for no good reason!

@noodle #Kea + #pfBlockerNG + #OpenNIC = #GalaxyBrainChair!
