I used to have a dell vostro notebook that every time I logged into the network with windows, it would drop every other device on the wifi.
Funny thing, is that if I used linux, the router would be alright and not collapse.
Never found out the reason. In the end I divorced the wife and she got that notebook.
Verisign already controls huge portions of the internet (as a registry and certificate authority) and Cloudflafe controls much of the rest. Giving up .gov does very little to move the needle.
