Agreed. The first point is the only legitimate technical point.

Everything else is just vague fear mongering about how google might misuse their dominant position and frankly DNS doesn't scare me any more than Google owning my email, documents and search history.

Either way, OpenDNS is awesome and I'm excited to see how they'll proceed fighting Google's entry (on technical merit).

Agreed. Responding to competition by trying to scare your users away from the competitor isn't healthy.

It's a tactic politicians have successfully used for ages. If it works, you can't blame a company for doing it. They're not in it for the ethics, but for the money.

It seems more worried/scared than anything to me. If I was openDNS I would be worried also.

Putting aside Dave's obvious bias and the question of ads, frankly, I'm shocked he misses the obvious: Google DNS is intended to work with Chrome's DNS prefetch, which is arguably the key technique that makes Chrome so fast.
