        Unlikely. Spambots are part of my master plan and will reveal their true purpose as soon as enough of them have reached the right destinations. It's only possible that one of my henchmen[^] has mistaken you for somebody else... Edit: Pasting a link can be hard...

                Thanks. Must have been one of the henchmen. They are like Chihuahuas, snarling behind your back and running away when you turn to look at them :)

                  The internet is not shutting down. In fact, not even those people who still use that DNS are not being cut off from the internet. Their DNS is the only thing that will stop working. That in turn may make it inconvenient to use other things, such as the WWW, but not impossible and things that don't use DNS (trackerless torrents for example) will continue to work just fine. Real title: some silly people who despite dozens of warnings did not fix their DNS settings will be cut off from their DNS. No biggie.
