OpenDNS safer or not?

Is it safer to use OpenDNS as the default DNS, or is it better to use the
one from my ISP?

Supposedly, OpenDNS has some built-in safety. However, if OpenDNS ever gets
hacked, wouldn't it become the world's greatest phising scheme?

The same applies to any DNS server of course, but my ISP's DNS server is a
less attractive target for hackers.
