Sorry if I gave the wrong impression here. I consider the chances the root server operators would decide to refuse to serve the root zone as infinitesimally unlikely, similar in probability to the US government "going rogue" in a way that would impact the root zone. I am merely pointing out that _if_ the US government were to decide to do something insanely stupid, there would be mechanisms by which those actions could be addressed (in a stunningly destructive way). This is why I've made analogy to Mutual Assured Destruction nuclear doctrine.<br>
