> (Verizon and Comcast hijack domain misspellings to redirect to their search pages)
What?! Thought only OpenDNS (and similar services) did that bullshit, and in their case I can understand. In the case of an ISP... you're paying them already!
They totally did. I used to be on Comcast and they did it all the time. There's a setting to turn it off, apparently, but I was never able to. I switched to FiOS fairly recently and it was the same. Any time I browse to an invalid URL, it went to the Verizon search capture page that I had to manually opt out.
