Darwin & Protocols

" summary

History shows DNS wins by simplicity but now reveals sharp limits: cache poisoning appears within a decade and Dan Kaminsky’s statistical attack forces stopgap fixes, DNSSEC is 15 years old and still slow to deploy, DDoS and forged UDP sources scale with link speed, some servers handle millions of qps though 10k qps used to be “high,” EPCglobal alters ONS spec and ONS fails to unify RFID, ENUM fails to supplant telephony routing, and entrants pay about $300m for new TLDs while Google sees ~15% of queries.
