Registering the kill switch domain and pointing it to your own web server is not the best solution at all, many machines around the world have difficulties connecting to the server and suffering from heavy packet loss, and it greatly reduces the effectiveness of the kill switch.
Darien Huss does it for collecting data of the worm, but for sake of all users, he really should point the domain to a large CDN such as CloudFlare (a.k.a the Great Cloudwall) or even google.com to prevent more machines being inflected and it is more important than data gathering. It also eliminates the problem of DDoS attacks.
