Absolutely — DNS goes way beyond just resolving websites. It’s been used for service discovery and coordination long before tools like etcd came along, and still is in many systems today. Adblocking is one use case, but DNS firewalls (like RPZ) and logging frameworks such as Dnstap show how powerful DNS can be at the infrastructure level. Thanks for sharing the link — it’s a great reminder that benchmarking speed is only one piece of the bigger DNS picture.
