I was referring exactly to Robert's suggestion that my feelings for US
Foreign Policy might induce me to firewall out certain subnets from my DNS
(obviously impossible when I don't have admin access to all of the
secondaries).

I was referring exactly to Robert's jumping on the bandwagon that my DNS
zone file somehow might violate some copyright, or breach the terms of use
of the nodelist.

I was referring exactly to Robert's suggestion that because my DNS server
could be used by Fidonet nodes it is somehow part of Fidonet.

What exactly does Robert have against a DNS service for use by IBN nodes
that includes as many IBN nodes as possible?

Such as?
