DNS is getting rather long in the tooth and I expect it will be replaced largely RSN. Article assumes we will keep internet address assignment the same as well and not at least move to IPV6 and a less stingy model of effectively static addresses. And the use of VPN today and something rather different tomorrow will likely change this. What happens when you effectively throw an authenticated request into some pool/queue of outstanding request and something else pools it and forwards it then putting response in pool? The assumed direct link of packet IP address to website that is fixed is not likely to last so long imho. Already we are starting to see blockchain mediated DNS like services. I would not be surprised by some kind of NFT registration of sites.

What cannot you do with traditional internal DNS that you can do with those newfangled DNS replacements? They offer censorship resistance and potentially a much lower cost to register your name, but they have plenty of drawbacks too.
Quite frankly, I suspect I might be getting trolled by GPT-3, but I'm asking the question anyway for the benefit of the community.
