Subject: How DNS works

Hello,

To alleviate some ignorance regarding the DNS process and public servers.

1 DNS

DNS Servers are public if they are a part of the public domain hierarchy. \
This is NOT that they are on the Internet. This is NOT if anyone can \
connect to port 53 and use them.

DNS Servers are public if and ONLY if they have become an authorised part \
of the DNS infrastructure.

This is a contractual agreement. To connect a DNS Server to the hierarchy \
it needs to serve a domain. To do this the higher level domain server and \
your domain system have an agreement a contract (and please contracts are \
not required to be written) which exists with implied rights and restraints \
as dictated by the Internet community and the standards associated with use \
and the various domain bodies.

How this works;

Say I want to register satoshi.com

I have to go to a register and apply to register the domain (in this case \
with a .com authority). There are terms in the contract which is formed.

Thus the name servers which are listed in the application and thus in the \
DNS hierarchy are public.

If I stick a server -ex satoshi.private

On the internet for the use of the Internal network, than this is PRIVATE. \
If it is secure of not has NO relevance to the status of being public or \
private this is a separate issue.

What are you quoting dude? The linked email doesn't have the domain example "satoshi", but "ignorant".

That damn Carl Wright is rewriting history again, or:
