Opendns 1 Opendns OpenDNS 1 OpenDNS OpenDNS Type DNS Resolution Service Founded 2005 Headquarters San Francisco, California Key people David Ulevitch (Founder & CEO) [1] Employees 20 [2] Website OpenDNS.com OpenDNS is a Domain Name System (DNS) resolution service. OpenDNS extends DNS adding features such as misspelling correction, phishing protection, and optional content filtering. It provides an ad-supported service[3][4] "showing relevant ads when we [show] search results" and a paid advertisement-free service. Services DNS OpenDNS offers DNS resolution as an alternative to using Internet service providers' DNS servers. There are OpenDNS servers in strategic locations, and they also employ a large cache of the domain names. OpenDNS has adopted and supports DNSCurve.[5] OpenDNS provides the following recursive nameserver addresses[6] for public use, mapped to the nearest operational server location by anycast routing: • 208.67.222.222 (resolver1.opendns.com) • 208.67.220.220 (resolver2.opendns.com) • 208.67.222.220 [6] • 208.67.220.222 [6] IPv6 addresses (experimental)[7] • 2620:0:ccc::2 • 2620:0:ccd::2 Other features include a phishing filter, domain blocking and typo correction (for example, typing "example.og" instead of "example.org"). OpenDNS maintains a list of malicious sites and blocks access to them when a user tries to access them through their service. OpenDNS also run a service called PhishTank for users to submit and review suspected phishing sites. The name OpenDNS refers to the DNS concept of being open, where queries from any source are accepted. It is not related to open source software; the service is based on closed-source software.[8] OpenDNS earns a portion of its revenue by resolving a domain name to an OpenDNS server when the name is not otherwise defined in DNS. This has the effect that if a user types a non-existent name in a URL in a web browser, the user sees an OpenDNS search page. Advertisers pay OpenDNS to have advertisements for their sites on this page. This behavior is similar to VeriSign's previous Site Finder or the redirects many ISP's place on their own DNS OpenDNS 2 servers, but it is a service provided only at users' request.[9] OpenDNS says that the advertising revenue pays for the free customized DNS service.[10] As of March 2010 OpenDNS said that it handled over 20 billion DNS requests daily, with over 26 billion delivered on 21 April 2010.[11] OpenDNS may have negligible performance gain,[12] but may process queries more quickly than an ISP with slow DNS servers.[13] DNS query results are sometimes cached by routers (e.g. typically local ISPs queries may be cached by ISPs home routers), the local operating system or applications, so speeds may not be noticeable with every request but only with requests that are not stored in a local cache. DNS rebinding protection To provide protection against DNS rebinding, private IP addresses can be (optionally) filtered out of DNS responses.[14] Domain-blocking On May 13, 2007, OpenDNS launched a domain-blocking service to block or filter web sites visited based upon categories, allowing control over the type of sites that may be accessed. The filters can be overridden through individually managed blacklists and whitelists. In 2008 OpenDNS changed from a closed list of blocked domains to a community-driven list allowing subscribers to suggest sites for blocking; if enough subscribers (the number has not been disclosed) concur with the categorization of the site it is added to the appropriate category for blocking. As of 2011 there were over 50 categories. The basic OpenDNS service does not require users to register, but using the block/filter feature requires registering and logging in.[15] FamilyShield OpenDNS also provides the following recursive nameserver addresses as part of their FamilyShield[16] parental controls which block pornography, proxy servers, phishing sites and some malware: • 208.67.222.123 • 208.67.220.123 DNSCrypt DNSCrypt encrypts DNS traffic between the user's computer and the OpenDNS name servers for Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and iPhone.[17] Dynamic DNS On December 3, 2007, OpenDNS began offering the free DNS-O-Matic [18] service to provide a method of sending dynamic DNS (DDNS) updates to several DDNS providers using DynDNS's update API.[19] OpenDNS premium On October 21, 2009, OpenDNS launched premium services. For a charge, the service offers ad-free result pages, increased reporting and block features, and other services. History • In July 2006, OpenDNS was launched by computer scientist and entrepreneur David Ulevitch. It received venture capital funding from Minor Ventures, which is led by CNET founder Halsey Minor. • On July 10, 2006, the service was covered by digg, Slashdot, and Wired News, which resulted in an increase of DNS requests from just over one million requests on July 9 to 30 million on July 11. OpenDNS 3 • Before 2007 OpenDNS was using the DNS Update API from DynDNS to handle updates from users with dynamic IPs.[20] • On October 2, 2006, OpenDNS launched PhishTank, an online collaborative anti-phishing database. • On June 11, 2007, OpenDNS started advanced web filtering to optionally block adult content for their free accounts. • On November 5, 2008, Nand Mulchandani, former head of VMware's security group, left VMware to join OpenDNS as new CEO, replacing founder David Ulevitch, who remained as the company's chief technology officer.[21] • In July 2009, OpenDNS was funded by Sequoia Capital and Greylock.[22] • In November, 2009 David Ulevitch resumed his post as CEO of OpenDNS. • In June 2010, OpenDNS launched "FamilyShield", a service designed to filter out sites with pornographic content. The service uses the DNS addresses 208.67.222.123 and 208.67.220.123.[23] • On September 1, 2010, the World Economic Forum announced the company as a Technology Pioneer for 2011.[24] • On November 8, 2011, Founder and CEO David Ulevitch wrote an open letter to Congress about the Stop Online Piracy Act and the Protect IP Act.[25] Issues, conflicts and Google redirection While the OpenDNS name resolution service is free, people have complained about how the service handles failed requests. If a domain cannot be found, the service redirects users to a search page with search results and advertising unless the user has paid for an upgraded service. Users can switch this off via the OpenDNS Control Panel, or specify another page to use for missing domains. This behavior is similar to that of many large ISPs who also redirect failed requests to their own servers containing advertising.[26] In 2007, David Ulevitch explained that in response to Dell installing "Browser Address Error Redirector" software on their PCs, OpenDNS started resolving requests to Google.com. Some of the traffic is handled by OpenDNS typo-correcting service which corrects mistyped addresses and redirects keyword addresses to OpenDNS's search page, while the rest is transparently passed through to the intended recipient.[27] Also, a user's search request from the address bar of a browser that is configured to use the Google search engine (with a certain parameter configured) may be covertly redirected to a server owned by OpenDNS (which is within the OpenDNS Terms of Service).[28] Users can disable this behavior by logging in to their OpenDNS account and unchecking "OpenDNS proxy" option.[29] Additionally, Mozilla users can fix this problem by installing an extension[30] or by simply changing or removing the navclient sourceid from their keyword search URLs. This redirection breaks some non-Web applications that rely on getting an NXDOMAIN response for non-existent domains, such as e-mail spam filtering, or VPN access where the private network's nameservers are consulted only when the public ones fail to resolve. Breaking local name resolution can be avoided by configuring the DNS addresses only in the forwarders of the local DNS server or router (the WAN/Internet configuration of a router or other gateway). For other purposes, or when the DNS addresses cannot be configured in a forwarder, domains for which an NXDOMAIN response is expected should be added to the Exceptions for VPN Users section of the OpenDNS Dashboard.

Columbia Business Law Review (2012), pp. 1-150 CROWDFUNDING AND THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS C. Steven Bradford* Crowdfunding-the use of the Internet to raise money through small contributions from a large number of investors-could cause a revolution in small-business financing. Through crowdfunding, smaller entrepreneurs, who traditionallyhave had great difficulty obtaining capital, have access to anyone in the world with a computer, Internet access, and spare cash to invest. Crowdfunding sites such as Kiva, Kickstarter, and IndieGoGo have proliferated, and the amount of money raised through crowdfunding has grown to billions of dollars in just a few years. Crowdfunding poses two issues under federal securities law. First, crowdfunding sometimes involves the sale of securities, triggering the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. Registrationis prohibitively expensive for the small offerings that crowdfunding facilitates, and none of the current exemptions from registration fit the crowdfunding model.

  • Site Finder and Internet Governance Jonathan Weinberg*
    Site Finder and Internet Governance Jonathan Weinberg* I. INTRODUCTION On September 15, 2003, VeriSign, Inc. — the company that operates the databases that allow Internet users to reach any Internet resource ending in “.com” or “.net” — introduced a new service it called Site Finder. Less than three weeks later, after widespread protest from the technical community, at least three lawsuits, and a stern demand from ICANN (the Internet Corporation of Assigned Names and Numbers, which has undertaken responsibility for managing the Internet domain name space), VeriSign agreed to shut Site Finder down.1 In between those dates, the Internet community saw a passionate debate over the roles of ICANN, VeriSign, and the Internet’s technical aristocracy in managing the domain name space. VeriSign has charged that its opponents’ reactions were the product of “obsolete thinking” that would disable it from “build[ing] a commercial business.”2 ICANN, for its part, is seeking to enact a procedure under which top-level domain name registry operators such as VeriSign must seek ICANN’s approval before offering new services or taking any “significant actions that . could affect the operational stability, reliability, security or global interoperability of . the Internet.”3 Some see fault on all sides: “It's hard to say,” writes one commentator, “in this case who is being more anti-competitive, ICANN or VeriSign.”4 In this essay, I will try to unpack the Site Finder story. In Part I, I will explain what VeriSign did, and how others reacted. In Part II, I’ll address the Site Finder service from a technical standpoint, and in Part III from a regulatory one.

  • Ethnic Business: Chinese Capitalism in Southeast Asia/[Edited By] Jomo K.S
    Ethnic Business The role of ethnic Chinese business in Southeast Asia in catalyzing economic development has been hotly debated—and often misunderstood—throughout cycles of boom and bust. This book critically examines some of the key features attributed to Chinese business: business-government relations, the family firm, trust and networks, and supposed ‘Asian’ values. The in-depth case studies that feature in the book reveal considerable diversity among these firms and the economic and political networks in which they manoeuvre. With contributions from leading scholars and under the editorship of Jomo and Folk, Ethnic Business is a well-written, important contribution to not only students of Asian business and economics, but also professionals with an interest in those areas. Jomo K.S. is Professor of Applied Economics at the University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Other books he has edited include Manufacturing Competitiveness in Asia and Southeast Asian Paper Tigers?, both published by Routledge. Brian C.Folk is a Ph.D. Candidate, Sociology Department, at the University of California, Berkeley, USA.
