Didn't we see a story about this last year?

Replace images of people's food with a stock image, and they could dispense with this whole system.

Who cares what IP address the queries come from? We're not talking about anonymity here, we're talking about content filtering via DNS. What matters are the results that are returned to the client.

Distributed, hierarchical servers are the way DNS was designed and intended, so it actually is DNS. Trusting the hierarchy is another matter altogether.
So your point still stands. Do it yourself; it's educational and fun.

There are blacklists you can use. Alternatively, you can query DNS servers that do the filtering for you (blacklisting is done on their end).

Has Avira done this? If not, your point is moot.

Do you drag every conversation you hear down with this pedantic garbage every time you hear a figure of speech? You must be a blast at parties.

Are you enjoying the breeze?

I'm trying.

Exactly. I'd dub a copy from friends in elem. school until I'd saved enough allowance to buy the albums. Then I bought them again on CD later in high school/college, many of them more than once (damage, theft, etc.). Even the odd vinyl. By this time I was attending shows, buying merch.
Yet somehow we're the leeches. Gotcha.

No, those would be manpages.

Quoting the article you linked:
"The figures given here relate to profits generated by handset makers, not the services ecosystem and potential profits made by app publishers and others..."
