They farm on games like World of Warcraft. It is literally like sweatshop labor where they have people farm for rare game items 24 hours a day. They auction the stuff for gold, then sell the gold online for real money.

i just wonder whod buy the stuff?

Id keep the gold. Throw it in my money bin.

Another good analogy for the DNS would be using street addresses for your local neighborhood instead of grid coordinates.

the only absolute way to avoid DNS redirection or poisoning is to always use the IP Address instead of the "Name" or URL (uniform resource locator)


edit for example:
Honey, I am heading over to 39.780959,-104.89567
With DNS Becomes:
Honey, I am heading over to Bass Pro Shops, 7970 Northfield Blvd, Denver, CO 80266

hope that clarified everything a bit

Why can't more people talk in IP addresses? Its easier than binary but not as fun.
