Take a baseball bat and trash all the routers, shout out "IT'S A NETWORK PROBLEM NOW, SUCKERS!" and then peel out of the parking lot in your Ferrari.

Hmmm... What to think of it. Partly positive because I like OpenDNS technologies, and now they get more money to work with it probably. On the other hand, the future might bring changes I don't like.

I currently use OpenDNS with DNScrypt. Works great.

the cloud proxy market is going nuts, between that and palo/NGFW the good old internal proxy is going out of fashion pretty quick

Bad move. I hate that song.

As a previous and current customer that went through the acquisition, I can say it has been painless and unremarkable, both of which are good things.  Also, our annual renewal did not go up in price this year.
