In the interview they are saying that if Google is down, lots of people don't have DNS anymore. So that accounts for an even larger drop than just "no Youtube". Hmm - why would people use those resolvers, besides being lazy in configuring a proper resolver-address.
it's a bit perjorative to say 'lazy' isn't it? what if your ISP does monkey business with nxdomain or other requests? would you like it better if people used opendns? or 4.2.2.2? (a non-sla service from a fourth party...) I'm a fan of my own resolver, but not everyone has a dns resolver in they back pocket, right?
