Yep. That's their business model - the same one the the SiteFinder
debacle rolled out to, er, the entire Internet a few years ago.

If you choose to use their free service, they deliver content to you
which might match the domain you requested when browsing for things
which have no A record.

If you pay, you get "Ad-free Guide and block pages".

I guess YGWYPF.

Considering it's almost impossibly easy to run a local caching DNS
server, if you want to avoid delegating control over the Internet to a
third party with whom you have no existing business relationship, you
should.
