A decision handed down by the Court of Milan requires Google to poison public DNS records to block access to pirate sites.

Last December the Court of Milan ordered Cloudflare to block sites added to Italy’s Piracy Shield system. Cloudflare sees itself as a neutral intermediary but increasingly frustrated rightsholders say it should play a more active role by assisting their fight against piracy. A decision issued by the same court now requires Google to poison its Public DNS to prevent access to pirate sites. It was handed down on March 11 without Google being heard in the matter.

    Genuine question: is the performance up to par with Google or cloud flare or quad9? Been looking to move to a more privacy focused dns provider but obviously want to keep performance up too.

      Try NextDNS. It was built by Netflix architects. Even at the bottom of the world I have found their ultralow network’s performance to be very good.

      Google and cloudflare has the resources (and servers) for high uptime and speed. Youre going to have to make a trade off.
