Everyone CAN manage his own DNS root; everyone CAN use /etc/hosts; 
everyone CAN switch to an altogether different name resolution such as 
PNRP.

Everyone CAN'T switch to an alternate global routing table.

the cancellation of relevant certificates utilized in routing PKI, 
and/or order operators under their jurisdiction to reject same?
