You cannot set up your "own DNS".

You can set up your *TINY* part of the heavily centralized DNS system,  
that's all.

Maybe you are forgetting that a lot of other centralized and well  
controlled servers are queried before yours are for the final  
authoritative answer.

The Internet is not absolutely central or anarchic, and it isn't the  
same thing as a government anyway.  It's a machine, and machines  
operate by rules if you want them to work well.

Human government has far ore "flex" in the system so the restraints  
that color the decisions people make in maintaining an Internet are  
not there.
