Abstract: The DNS resolution path by which the world's internet content consumers locate the world's internet content producers has been under continuous attack since the earliest days of Internet commercialization and privatization. Much work has recently and is currently being invested to protect this vital source of Personally Identifiable Information -- but by whom, and why, and how? Let's discuss.
