That makes sense but I don't think any third party would pay to be included in a iframe and fed such a limited amount of data, and if you aren't paid for it why bother making all of your users mad in order to do it?

I'm curious as to how the plumbing worked in this system. Would seem difficult to pipe water in a manner that can rotate like this.

What about the failure rate of all the DNS servers? It's not like someone set up a Windows Server box and we all share it. Google's DNS server at 8.8.8.8 for example uses some sort of complex multihoming/multicast setup and is globally distributed. I trust DNS to work more than any other service on the internet. It's a triumph of software engineering. The Roman aqueduct of the internet.

But we don't just wait for buildings to burn down to teach organizations a lesson about their heating contractors -- we have fire codes, and inspectors with teeth.

We did wait for a fire to create building codes, it just was a long time before either of us were born: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_Shirtwaist_Factory_...

There was certainly plenty of fires before that but this one was terrible enough to cause a public outcry.
