Experts Tell Feds To Sign the DNS Root ASAP

Posted by kdawson on from the digital-john-hancock dept.

alphadogg sends along news that the US National Telecommunications and Information Administration has gotten plenty of feedback on its call for comments on securing the root zone using DNSSEC. The comment period closed yesterday, and more than 30 network and security experts urged the NTIA to implement DNSSEC stat. There were a couple of dissenting voices and a couple of trolls.

    In my experience, the trolls are usually right.

    "You know, that 13-year-old kid DOES have a point. We should all stretch our anuses and put various large fruits inside our rectal cavities. And what those two ladies are doing with that cup is sheer genius. And I'm certain we can't agree more with his opinion of 'FUCK FUCK FUCK U CUNTS SHIT FUCK DAMN PISS COCK FUCK'. Gentlemen, as usual, we find that the trolls are, indeed, right! To the anus-stretching machines!"

    Are you troubled by DNS cache poisoning...well don't worry!

    I wrote a song about it!

    Your domain will be safe,
    You'll be well on your way
    With DNS-SEC security!

    Signing is a breeze,
    Bring hackers to their knees
    With DNS-SEC security!

    I know you're grown attached to old
    Ways of doing things
    But when you update BIND
    Your heart will race to sing!

      I have written a song for you too:

      Your musical ability
      Is sure to wisk you merrily
      From this shallow pool of genes
      For with music like that my friend,
      you'll never get laid,
      You'll never get laid.

    Oh the irony is sickening. All he did was state his apparently uncommon opinion and he gets modded troll?
