Dear David

First of all congrats on the brightest idea i have seen.
Secondly thanks for keeping the service free.

Please note that the link you gave above for
http://www.opendns.com/faq/#how_does_opendns_make_money
“How OpenDNS makes money”
is now changed to http://www.opendns.com/support/article/14

I came here reading about your FREE service on
http://www.doxpara.com/ where i tested my ISP DNS service
and found it to be vulnuberable to the recent DNS posioning attack that is coming up actively this month (July 2008).

Now i am in SAFE Hands and I wish every one else too get aware of it and start using your great FREE service.

Some how for last two days I can not access CJ.com website. Even after the switch to OpenDNS the page do not show up. I wonder what could be wrong :0

Once again thanks !!!!

Hi David,

It has been wonderful using everyDNS so when i heard about openDNS, i configured my office network to use it. Its interesting to know that even here in Nigeria, where Internet can be relatively slow, there is a considerable improvement when openDNS is used.

Have fun!

David,

It was great talking to you today in Sacramento. I’m amazed I hadn’t heard about the concept before, but I think it’s a great idea. I’m going to tell all my site visitors (to Scamdex) to switch to using openDNS as soon as I get home.

Keep up the good work!

Of all the things you say, I can for sure say that one is true: you have a wonderful team around you.
For the rest… time has already said they are true, too.

How OpenDNS Can Benefit You…

Why Would You Care about DNS?
Anyone using a networked device (computer, smart phone) on a local network or Internet rely on DNS (Domain Name System) to make life a lot easier, whether they know it or not! Could you imagine memorizing hundreds of numb…

Excellent service. Innovative and closer to the source of the problem than your competitors. Keep up the good work. Search for more ways to integrate into consumers’ lives; enterprises will naturally follow the economic incentives.

I’ve found that OpenDNS is set up on my laptop seemingly automatically in the last few days without me (knowingly) doing it. Is that possible?

Hmm - so tell me gain why your doing this, and how you make money?

I am sure your not that altruistic

To be clear I am fine with you making money out of this, I just want to understand how you make money out of me using the service.
