lemme try an un-techie this...
when you visit a website; i.e. counter.social, your computer needs to translate that name into numbers -- an address, like a phone number. the "phone book" of addresses is called the Domain Name System (DNS).
it's possible for bad people to trick your computer into accepting their answer for the address vs the real answer, so instead of going to the real CoSo you go a fake CoSo
DNSSEC makes this attack impossible, akin to certs on SSL sites
make sense?
