Here we're at the "most users" stage where we usually don't have our
own servers that we are physically adjacent to 24/7; yes, it's
technically *possible* to run "our own" authoritative DNS, just as
it's possible to run "our own" webserver, but in practice someone
else is doing this on our behalf. I haven't seen many
logging/authentication DNS services offered for sale to the general
public, though, whereas webservers usually have many options for that
built-in, and more 3rd-party solutions for adding (or enabling) it.
