Doubtless I'll get flamed for this, but think of all the fun you could have
with a bogus root hints file and returning porn site IP addresses for
www.microsoft.com and others...... :)

But do it randomly, e.g. add the line, reload named, and half an hour

the day, maybe using a script.  

Make your competitors burn some hours trying to figure out random
failures before cutting the beggars off completely...
