TWC's RoadRunner WildCard DNS "NXD" Service is Bad Idea

When did this "service" got activated? If you are a RoadRunner Internet customer and make a URL typo you now get a RoadRunner/Yahoo sponsored search results page. Creepy.

I think RoadRunner makes enough cash without the incremental income from showing sponsored results.

I'm not the first to blog about it.
