If a host (domain name, web\u00a0address, etc&#8230;) doesn&#8217;t resolve, it will just fail. With OpenDNS,\u00a0they hijack these failures and redirect you to a search page that\u00a0displays ads and makes them money.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>From the administrator or customer point view there are things like stats, control panels, and more &#8211; all in OpenDNS. \u00a0Google Public DNS seems to be focused differently.
