I've always used Level3's servers (4.2.2.1-6, IIRC) because my ISP
intercepts NXDOMAIN. Is there a reason why I should switch? Does anyone
have any experience on Level3's servers? I've never had any problems,
but then I don't know anything about them with regards to data
retention, etc...

It would be very nice if there was a caching nameserver that could
resolve via tor-resolve, making multiple queries to weed out
censored/malicious results. Does anyone see any immediate problems with
this, or know of anything like it?
