The NS entries are the name servers.  It appears there are a few listed in
that entry.

However, you need not select name servers in Nogales, generally using a set
from two diverse locations is recommended (disaster recovery).

Those "public" open nameservers are not slated to be "killed"; however, I
believe that Verizon is going to limit access due to DoS and provide
controls due to virus exploits.  I am not sure how they intend to accomplish
this over and above what is already in place.  A huge number of the world
currently uses one of the these, since Verizon's own nameservers (along with
Comcast) did not serve their population.  Obviously unstable name servers do
not provide traffic shaping and bandwidth control, but there is a huge
number of subscribers that can't get around such trivial technical
snicklets.
