I haven't used their DNS servers in quite some time.  That said, when they 
announced it some time ago on Twitter, they were treating it like it was 
amazing.  I was talking with one of their employees about it and she said, 
"Well, you can opt-out," and that was her answer to everything.  It seems 
that this will become a trend though.
