Ahh, so you admit it's not something you do for money, as you claimed
earlier. This was the point I and others are trying to drive home
here. You provide a service to the entire internet community through
your providing access to the f.root-servers.net
The point was made that all the internet's users are, in effect, your
clients. This points seems to carry it a bit too far, but it is not
that far off the mark when you consider it. My question merely
illustrated that.
And Paul, I won't touch your ethics. That discussion doesn't belong
here.
