What could Google possibly do with people telling them every website they are visiting? Also, at the scale Google operates, I am not sure that DNS is that big of a resource commitment, and it may allow them to do fancy traffic routing stuff for their own services.

I have no idea, that's why I'm asking. And as you can see there turn out to be some pretty good answers to that already.

The tooltip is an integral part of xkcd.

ROFL! I did not know this. To be specific if you are not an XKCD reader: hover your mouse over the comic for a second punch line.
