we will have non-dns web, be it .onion, .i2p or .s (secushare)
or something we are only dreaming of

that's why it will hardly be successful - it's too hard for newbies
to patch their dns. just as difficult as installing a custom software
so they might as well install a true alternative to dns

we have to force the ISPs to support zones that we want..
by lawmaking from the pirates!

national autonomy concerning root zones...
is it in conflict with net neutrality? only if
you *remove* TLDs..
