[dns-operations] google DNS returns different result

[yhpeng at orange.fr]

Hi members,

I dig www.qq.com from within a server in China.
Most the other public DNS servers return a CNAME to akamai CDN.
Only google's DNS returns a group of addresses which are China's IP.
Do you know why? Thanks.

$ dig www.qq.com @8.8.8.8
