not really.  It helps "mitigate" lies, but does not reinstantiate
access to helpfully suppressed name resolution data.   I think the
DNS technical community ought to be careful not to lose sight
of the broader picture when making operational recommendations.
And just because Joe and Joan may enjoy their walled garden,
I don't want to be forced into their "enhanced" user experience.
