        I don’t trust CloudFlare with my data,
        assume they will sell it since it’s a for-profit company.

        Meanwhile Quad9 touts about not logging IPs and being GDPR compliant.

            I Googled them because I was interested. The answer is yes.

            Sony failed to sue them, hoping to force them to block copyright breach adjacent DNS resolvers. That feels like a badge of honour.

        Twice the latency for DNS results? Care to give concrete examples? DNS is usually very fast. Twice as long as very fast is still pretty quick, in my opinion.

          I’m always on VPN, so latencies add up.

          dig +stats @1.1.1.1 www.google.com | grep '[\d]+ msec'
          

          gives me 10-20ms using a nearby vpn server

          dig +stats @9.9.9.9 www.google.com | grep '[\d]+ msec'
          

          gets me 30-50 ms, and not rarely >100ms.

          Plus DNS caching… I do DOT or DOH (forget which, setup years ago) from my router’s local DNS server without any noticeable latency.

      kinda hate how they don’t provide dns with dnssec but no malware blocking (i prefer my dns to always just resolve stuff regardless if it’s “malware” or not)
      also their default dns does has ECS disabled (they have an alternative one tho)

        It is quite the mouthful, but I really hope people aren’t – whether v4 or v6 – having to manually type in DNS servers regularly. Whatever your choice of DNS server, it should be a set-it-and-forget-it affair, so the one-off lookup time becomes negligible.

    “You are the number 1111 (base 255) for me.” isn’t even a backhanded compliment any more, or is it?

    I mean, that puts the person in question behind 16.843.008 more favourable people (unless I’ve miscalculated).
