Comcast the Latest ISP To Try DNS Hijacking

http://tech.slashdot.org/story/09/08/05/1926257/Comcast-the-Latest-ISP-To-Try-DNS-Hijacking?from=rss

DNS hijacking means that if you go to an nonexistent domain like this instead of getting a proper error you'll be taken to a custom page, usually filled with ads.

You can opt out here:
https://dns-opt-out.comcast.net/
You'll need an email you can check, as well as your modem's MAC address. You can find your MAC address on the modem.
