A volunteer project, started in 2000, that runs an alternative DNS (glossary)DNS Domain Name System The internet's directory that links domain names to computer addresses. Full definition of DNS root. Its servers answer for the normal TLDs (glossary)TLD top-level domain The last part of a domain name, after the final dot. Full definition of TLD and also for its own endings, such as .geek and .libre. Those extra endings are not in the DNS root, so they work only for users who switch to OpenNIC resolvers (glossary)resolver The DNS server that looks up domain names on behalf of users. Full definition of resolver.
