The really bad part is that they'll on the average do as good a job of intercepting
DNS traffic as they do of filtering outbound 1918-sourced packets in general. After
all, the root DNS boxes shouldn't ever see a 1918 packet unless (a) some site isn't
egress filtering properly *and* (b) their ISP isn't ingress filtering at the edge.

Egress *and* ingress filtering.  Belt and suspenders design.  Too bad there's so
many sites that still manage to leave their fly open anyhow.....
