Why bother? Leave it at 8.8.8.8 and wait for them to sort it out. Every couple of days, switch back to their DNS and see if they untossed the domain salad.
It will do to students what such systems always do: It makes them find out how to game the system. Once it's out that you should spend time in the library, people will hand their cards to their dorm partners who need to research something in the library to soak up some "I'm studying hard" points while sleeping off last night's party.
Give the whole shit 2 years and they'll find out that students are one demographic that's really resistant to profiling.
So school does prepare for life. Because out in the real world, nobody gives a fuck which of the three was your reason to not perform as expected either.
If anything, it's a declaration of bankruptcy of our political system. How much do you have to hate a system to think that something like Trump is the better choice?
If I told you 20 years ago that Donald Trump becomes the president of the USA (remember, it was a joke in the Simpsons back then and it was a good one, nobody thought that would be possible), and if I then told you that he won because he's actually the lesser evil, I guess you would have asked me whether he was running against Cthulhu.
As if users can make an informed decision. You want to bet that it will be squeezed in between layers and layers of legalese and technobabble that no sane person can decipher without a degree in computer science?
And do you want to bet that it's going to be deliberately obfuscated to the point where nobody understands it?
Which one asks for my approval to install their crapware? Not my phone, which comes preloaded with crap you can't remove. Not Windows 10 that not only comes preloaded with useless junk you can't remove but also reinstalls it for your convenience should for some reason you accidentally pry them out of the system.
What's left? Linux? Is there still a distri without systemd?
Because then they'd actually have to DO something. And that's hard. Complaining and bullying others into changing themselves into what they want them to be is way easier.
Would be a pretty good representation of humanity. First, we all look the same there, no gender or racial bias visible (if needed apply a color filter to ensure you can't even tell if the person is black, white or polka dotted) and second, most humans are actually huge assholes.
The joke here is that there is hardly anyone in the free world that is more "Establishment" than Trump. How it's possible that someone who is a billionaire with zero regard for his workers could be seen as the advocate for the "little man" is really beyond me.
Can't the Mafia do something good for the community for a change? It's not like they have any qualms neutralizing threats to their business model, and, well, let's face it, this company is...
There is actually a simple solution to the problem. Asylum, ok. Become criminal and you're out. You can leave on your own or you get flown out of the country, and if nobody takes you back, the sea does.
Do it thrice and crime rates will plummet.
Same with boat refugees. Sink 3 boats and it stops.Immediately.

Or in the words of a whore, you don't have to sleep with me, you just have to pay me.

Depends on your definition of effective. It's effective in keeping you as a subscriber, if only by not taking "fuck you" as an answer.
The result would be different. A missing DNS entry does not result in a timeout, you get a site not found.

How, by having my card at certain places at certain times? If anything, it proves that I can get people to do stuff for me.

And all I could have done in reply was nodding.
Don't tell me what I can or cannot be! You trying to humansplain here?

If you don't like the choices, make some better content yourself and put it there.
Yeah, you say that. Until the day you encounter a masochist.
By that metric, Germany accomplished a lot more between the years of 1945 and 1950 than the US...

I identify as a land mine.
Want to trigger me? Feeling lucky, punk?
And that alone makes it a topic that should be thoroughly discussed.

And only MINE doesn't stink!
Yes, come to the dark side. We have chocolate cookies.
They are an acquired taste, though.
It still works. Don't be evil. Let Google dissect your life and sell you slice by slice.
In case you haven't noticed "Don't be evil" is directed from the speaker as a request to the recepient. Else it would be "We won't be evil".
The difference maybe being that with YouTube, YOU decide what's on the tube.
So if you're looking for someone to blame if you're watching crap, find a mirror.

Personally, I find it highly amusing.
