In this work we measure what percentage of DNS recursive
resolvers perform negative caching in the wild. We deploy
our own authoritative name server and harness thousands
of RIPE Atlas [3] sites spread over the globe to perform
repeated DNS queries for non-existing sub-domains of our
authoritative domain.
