Since this problem has started increasing again, I went to look to see how to 
use RPZ....

First thing that got my attention was that "The rules encoded in a response 
policy zone (RPZ) are applied only to responses to queries that ask for 
recursion".  But, these are authoritative only nameservers....   So, would RPZ 
work in this case?
