content: An Idea I'm not going to Pursue 1.) Distributed DNS Local VPN There's an app out there for phones called noroot firewall.  Basically, it takes on a middle man position between your computer and the internet.  If somebody created a DNS middle man which would do the following I think you would have a good anti-censorship / anti-tracking system. a.) act as a middle man between the dns system and your local machine b.) store the IPs of your lookups c.) if IP not in your local machine reach out to actual dns servers d.) if not on dns servers reach out to fellow app users Of course this could cause dns poisoning as an attack, but if somebody poisoned the DNS system you could still get to the site and you wouldn't be tracked every time you tried to get to it. Feel free to take it.  I don't care.  I just thought it would be interesting.
