Now seems a good time to point out there is an alternative DNS root that isn’t censored https://opennic.org/
This is intoresting, thanks! Didn’t know about this project.
Also, what’s wrong with their webpage? The scroll freezes on my phone. Will check when I’m on the computer.
Alternative roots are an interesting concept, but really people just need good alternatives recursives.
Audit the servers they recommend for you, because for me, the server at the top of the list offered no privacy features and kept logs.
Mullvad offers free DNS service. That’s what I usually use
There’s always Quad 9.
PSA:
DNS censorship is standard procedure in European copyright enforcement. Since Quad9 made the unfortunate decision to establish itself in Europe, it is forced to obey.
For example: https://www.quad9.net/fr/news/press/quad9-faces-new-dns-censorship-legal-challenge-in-france-from-canal/
I’m surprised they aren’t making the same demands of the relevant TLDs. Or are they trying that and failing? If yes, why would they have better chances with Google?
