To reduce the disruption to infected machines, the rogue DNS servers have been replaced with modified machines that are being operated for the next four months by the not-for-profit Internet Systems Consortium. Authorities wisely opted not to disconnect the DNS servers completely because millions of PCs now rely on them to find internet domains.
That will only delay the inevitable problem. They should have rigged the dns to forward you to a web page telling you what problem you have and how to fix it. All this is going to do is delay the "pulled the plug on the internet" effect for a few months.
