Even IF it would have a relevant impact on the spread of malware (and I
agree with you that it definitely CAN'T), triggering actions that you
CAN'T know the further consequences of is not a good idea.
And furthermore, breaking protocols is usually an approach to do as
much damage as you want. It is not technically intended for providers
to do this. There is no interface to indicate that you are bending DNS
for security reasons.
In the end, this is just another approach to justify interfering with
the network. Once the lever has been successfully applied because of
cybercrime or malware, this will be extended more and more politically.
All experience to date simply shows that.
The Russians are evil? So block the network. The Chinese are evil? So
network blocking. Wikileaks is evil? Network blocking. Because the
users are poor sheep that we have to protect from evil information. And
it's not the users who decide what information is evil.
