Abstract: The peer-to-peer DNS networking method network is built over Chord protocol as a secondary path to resolve Domain Name System (DNS) queries as a solution designed to avoid an intentional blocking from higher name servers. The DNS is a critical service in the Internet infrastructure that provides user-friendly name to Internet IP address mapping services, and must be protected from abuse, since the absence of the DNS has a severe impact on several Internet applications, such as HTTP, FTP, and/or e-mail that can cause such applications to become non-functional. The method is designed to keep DNS functional during intentional blocking from higher name servers, and the like.

Abstract: The tunneling-based method of bypassing Internet access denial allows for the re-routing of communication between a local system and a destination system when the local system's Internet Protocol (IP) address has been blocked by a malicious higher-tier Internet service provider (ISP). If it is determined that the local system is blocked from communicating with the destination system, then it is determined if a malicious higher-tier ISP is responsible for the blockage of service. If the local system is blocked by the ISP, then the ISP is identified and communication is established between the local system and a neighboring system that is not blocked by the ISP. Finally, communications are then transmitted from the local system to the destination system, through the established tunnel, by first transmitting from the local system to the neighboring system, and then transmitting from the neighboring system through the ISP to the destination system.
