I have to agree, though.  Remember the days when megalocorporations were Evil(tm) and Untrustworthy(tm)?  What happened to that inherent skepticism?  (Wow, my first ever CH post!)

Also, I have done some quick benchmarking and have found no increase in performance, but then all of my DNS servers are internal "root" servers, anyway, so I am not beholden to any ISP's DNS infrastructure unless intercepted at layer three.  And when I'm oot-and-aboot I use my own DNS server which has been configured following the numerous DNS security discussions available around the Intarweb.

Oh, and I like how their Security Benefits page http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/security.html does not once mention your privacy in using the servers.  And it isn't specifically addressed in their privacy policy page, either.
