In the threat model that I worry about, DNS are part of the problem. If 
a malicious entity can put together DNS data with other big data, It can 
increases its power and becomes a more dangerous threat.

But as I said, I lack many networking notions.

Anyway I find very satisfying the solutions you proposed to me. Thank 
you very much.

Cheers
