One more internet meme

  Luckily DNS is somewhat decentralized.

    Yeah, I don’t get the point of including a protocol together with 3 big corpos. Use a recursive resolver (with caching) instead of a forwarding one, and it’s fully decentralised at the TLD level.

    It’s still always DNS for some reason

      “It can’t be DNS!”

      “… It was DNS.”

      for some reason

      You mean things tend to fail at the highly redundant eventually consistent format-agnostic global distributed database and not on the stateless data transformers?

      Who could have guessed?

  Let it fall. People will then finally understand that this solution is not good. Decentraltion is the original design of the Internet.

    The internet was originally decentralized, but there is a reason why we changed to centralized.

    Because the ability to fend off DDoS attacks, being able to use easy to remember words instead of numbers, and all the other centralized things makes everything easier and more robust.

    You can still setup your decentralized internet, maybe throw in some blockchain, but nobody will want to use it because of all the disadvantages.

    I’m also wondering what’s the story behind this pic. I don’t think I’d want to park my car there or be standing there, hard hat or not.

    And it seems like that structure would be damaged beyond the point where you could right it again by pulling it back up.

      Earthquake-damaged building. It was called the Yun Men Tsui To building.

    It was the Yun Men Tsui To building in Taiwan, taken after the earthquake.

  That’s a shitty analogy, at least for yesterday’s outage. The sites behind cloudflare were working, they were just inaccessible because of cloudflare’s fuck up.

    DNS isn’t going away. But don’t depend on someone else’s server. Run your own! Its also a great opportunity to block ads/malware/tracking. Here’s some resources to get you started:
