To be blunt, the points you missed, were:

a. Not that it's the DNS protocol, but a DNS server, that was
implicated.  DNS servers can keep access logs, too.

And, to be equally blunt, you were asserting that DNS servers could be used to set evercookies on your machine and I was refuting that claim. And even if they do keep logs, they won't do you much good unless you know exactly what IP address to search for, which won't be of any help if your target's on the road using various free WiFi hotspots, or sharing a connection (and IP) with several other people, such as in an office environment. I won't say that you can't build up a profile of a specific person that way, but I doubt that cost effective in terms of targeting advertising.
