Abstract

The DNS is a hoary protocol, with ancient secrets that man was not meant to know.

It is said that learning too much about the dark corners of this ancient knowledge might drive one mad.

Here is your chance to learn mostly useless things about DNS!

This presentation will cover quirks of the DNS protocol which are probably surprising, and hopefully interesting.

Warning: Due to constraints no entities from beyond time and space will be summoned during this talk.
