i think that when 8.8.8.8 started getting spray painted on walls during 
political upheaval, the average user's capabilities were changed.

see also the GFW which has made bypass expertise common within china.

see also italy, where the gov't mandated dns-level filtering by all 
isp's of known-to-not-pay-taxes online gambling sites. gamblers shared 
information about what 8.8.8.8 was and how to reach it, in online forums.

cussedness can be predicted, and in this case, relied upon. people learn 
what they have to learn. the average, can change.
