Maybe it would make sense for someone to reiterate what types of abuse 
DNS is facilitating? I believe what Gadi was getting at was mainly the 
ability to use fake details to register a domain, and then very rapidly

detection. As opposed to there actually being fundamental flaws open to 
abuse in a system that maps names to IP addresses.

Which is mostly a policy / procedure problem rather then a DNS problem,
