I'm pretty sure you can forcefully opt out by using a DNS server that isn't run by scumbags, like 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for Google Public DNS. I hear OpenDNS is similarly good.


OpenDNS does the same thing these people are complaining about -- they wrap the missing domain in something like a search page that has their logo and custom ads on it.
