I disagree. I believe it to be more disrespectful to demand that someone
who cares about privacy, give the info that removes said privacy.
I should have been very explicit in my question then:

"Why does invoking dig multiple times return different results than
expected"

and the answer i got of:

 'your version is buggy, get a proper version' seems to be the right answer
to that.

I'm still angry at ubuntu for pushing non-working software. I will take
this up with them, if after I take the time to compile your current
sources, I see significant improvement of my issue.

I'm more frustrated by the answer to "stop obfuscating so we can help" ; I
did not initially ask the question "why is my delegation not working" i
asked "why is dig not working".
