[IP] more on YOU CANNOT EXCLUDE YOURSELF !!!!!!!!!!!!



I would have been surprised but that is what they told an IPer and for the live of me I could not see how to pull it off, so I emailed them.


Either the IPer misunderstood or they lied to him.

I would have been surprised if they COULD have excluded you, individually,
from their scheme.

DNS just doesn't work that way.

That said, I have an app called privoxy that filters ads and can mangle
content in the browser.  One feature is that sites that don't exist got a
custom "i'm not there" page generated on the local box, by privoxy.  I've
not done much with it, but it might be possible to re-rig privoxy to avoid
Verisign.
