Detect misbehaving OpenDNS resolvers
The network health team is doing a lot of different scanning recently, and they have found a few exit nodes using the OpenDNS resolver to look up DNS requests for Tor clients.
OpenDNS is known for doing various naughty things to DNS responses, such as sending people to their advertisement pages and what not.
Tor already have a subsystem for detecting some of this (NX domain hi-jacking) and to see whether some known DNS lookups doesn't resolve properly (google, yahoo, and a few others).
@arma mentioned the following way of detecting this on IRC:
