How is this any different from plain-old-DNS? Except that now the
number of attackers is limited to one - instead of worrying about the
US or China or UK or India or Russia or whoever falsifying DNS
records, you just have to worry about the US. And if/when you catch
them at it, you know exactly who did it.
