It's a Co-Host DNS service privatly hosted for D-link by OpenDNS.
I have raised this question before and without an official reply. I personally don't think we will see an inclusion like that of the DDNS page because even though its a fraction of what secure spot offers, the content filtering will still conflict with their paid service. Which means you will be left with using the opendns client.
I see no reason why it shouldn't be used. No signs of private marketing or what. Let's not regard every new item in a negative way. There is not much harm to be done.
My issue is primarily with the fact that when you go to ''more'' to see what it is for--nothing. I've also seen several ask what it does and while the word ''cagey'' is probably strong, there does seem to be a silence. While great efforts have gone to explain lots of other stuff, this feature just sits there mysteriously. It'd be nice to have an explanation, that's all.
More importantly, its a beta code. BETA. We'll fix the information section when the offical release hits the streets.
Oh come on for Pete's sake! This is the sort of misdirection we saw in the Bush Administration during press conferences. It's not a complicated question. You're answering a question with a qualification, not an answer.
How complicated can it be? This reminds me of the two messages from Kruschev during the Cuban Missile Crisis. In this case, you're ''pretending I never asked the first question'' and answering the second.
This is exactly what falls into the ''cagey'' category.
Sheesh!
