I have never seen a setup that changes the DNS for JUST the browser. If you have such a addon please post a link to it.

If a firefox addon can do the equivalent of a ping to site.com, it can get the associated ip, which it can place in the address bar and load up the content. EDIT: I forgot, that's not what we want. But what can an addon do anyway, can't it open a tcp/ip connection and mimic the format of a dns request to myDnsServer.com?

Haha I knew you were not ready for it. Here's some clues. The Mexican government is suing Baxter, because almost all who died of "swine flu" had taken the swine flu vaccine, and such is the news that matters. Such news is being suppressed by the controlled media, and will eventually also disappear from internet search engines, even from the web by flagging such sites as terrorist. But such news will never disappear from p2p networks. Eventually p2p networks will be the only place for free news exchange and a free press. For people that are not completely hypnotized by the mainstream media, pressing a button in an addon to switch between normal web and p2p web is easy. I believe they don't need to edit their linux configuration files or install software to mess with them.

If you are referring to bandwidth costs, you get charged for all traffic not just the traffic that you accept. Which is one of the reasons metered billing for residential lines is such a bad idea. If you mean machine resources (cpu cycles etc), sure rejecting all traffic except on port (whatever) means that (after refusing that connection) no further machine resources are used on that connection(you still eat the bandwidth).

I was thinking just in comparison to a regular p2p server. A regular p2p tracker has much more work to do than the dns server which only needs 1. dns lookups for visitors and 2. dns updates from participants powering up their web servers. What is cheaper then in terms of bandwidth required?
