Just in case anyone reading doesn't know where 127.0.01 is, it's home
As in the old techie joke 'there's no place like 127.0.0.1' or even
'there are 10 kinds of people in the world - those that understand binary and those that don't'
Why dns servers wrong? DNS is protocol - Domain Name System.

Nothing wrong with Domain Name System servers.

This campaign is a joke. How many of you actually understand the technology and see how Phorm is actually taking good steps to stop a copy of everything you do being stored.

Added my voice to the survey.
