    You are overlooking a simple fact: Rich dont want to pay taxes. You will always have problems when taking from the rich. 800 years ago It was barron rebellion (Magna Carta). Now it…

    Call it DNSSEC or whatever, DNS needs more crypto. At present security of DNS rely on manual intervention, 2FA, "multi-perspective DNS lookups" and other rituals. That does not sca…

    DNSSEC+DANE replaces registrars. The entity would push signed request directly to tld.

    Or who would lose from DNSSEC getting adopted ? CAs. This is a fight for cert revenue: CAs vs ICANN.

    How does a democracy (or any governance system backed by public will) survive if there is a 50/50 split in public will ?

    We do not consume energy. We consume goods and services which require energy to produce. This model completely ignores past and future advancments in energy efficieny.

    Businesses did not make buildings safer just because someone told them to. It is naturally considered a bad idea to kill your customers. Businesses would always create an environme…

    But how much of that is due to "fire code" ? Compare it with lawless parts of the world. You would find that horrible-ness is going down everywhere. China advanced only after havin…

    Browser vendors (specifically all DNS users) have the option. They can do it, if IANA fails at the job of being a dnsroot. Disruption is inversely proportional to consensus. If eve…

    Anyone can fork DNS. Its just a (name, key) map. As long as its done with enough consensus , it can be done. Mismanagement of .com is serious enough to demand that kind of change. …

    You is firefox/chrome/etc. Yes you can. The ownership of .com is not as exclusive/protected as .xxx or xxx.com. Thus the firefox/chrome/etc can map it to anyone they feel. Consider…

    No. You just map .com to another key with an agreement that new .com owner pre signs and map existing .com subs the right way . An unaware xxx.com does not need to do anything. As …

    I am not suggesting every client do their own mapping, that is not a naming system at all. There has to be very large consenus for a naming system to be effective. I just pointed t…

    Except there has to be a crypto proof why Google owns google.com not me. That means we need to secure dns. Then why need CAs at all ? Whats the point ?

    > No. You have to trust all the CAs, and the governments that control the DNS. Not in DNSSEC. .xxx need only trust dnsroot. yyy.xxx need only trust .yyy and dnsroot. firefox/chrome…

    You have to trust somone under DNS. The only trustless naming system I can think of is over a PoWChain (eg example.btc). Still you have 3 choices in DNSSEC/DANE, - get a .xxx, trus…
