What DNS would you recommend?

[p.H]

On win thre is a native hosts, and it can be added to Linux with a util. A native DNS lookup/filter.

Do you mean the hosts file ? It is present in GNU/Linux too as /etc/hosts. It is used as a local source for hostname lookup and has nothing to do with DNS.

Google censorship is well known. Proven in many articles since the election. Just try to find a really politically incorrect video, like Tarrant's or numerous others. Its openly banned 'copyright violations'.It actively tries to block some of my VPN servers. Vile.

Cloudflare will try to block torrent sites periodically. And who knows what else.

OpenDNS will block sites, usually with fake certificate errors.It periodically tries to block my own site. It leads to block.opendns.com

Google -- as a search engine -- may block/censor/hide whatever they please. It's not a public service after all.

However you were referring to Google's DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4). I have yet to see evidence that they censor/block/spoof anything at the DNS server.

The same goes for Cloudflare. You are merely speculating, and referring to "since the election" as if there was a, single, universal, election.

OpenDNS does filtering *by design*, i.e. you can choose a DNS server with ad and/or porn filterning, etc.

So again, do you have any evidence that Google or Cloudflare DNS servers are playing foul? or are you just trolling?

Sorry this is a little late.
I've been using Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 for some time.
Please see https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/dns ... s-1.1.1.1/

1.1.1.1 is a public DNS resolver that makes DNS queries faster and more secure.

https://blog.cloudflare.com/dns-resolver-1-1-1-1/

We’re using the following IPv4 addresses for our resolver: 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1. Easy to remember. These addresses have been provided to Cloudflare by APNIC for both joint research and this service. You can read more about their work via the APNIC blog.

DNS resolver, 1.1.1.1, is served by Cloudflare’s Global Anycast Network.

I've switched from Cloudflare to Quad9, it's a bit slower but it blocks malware sites.

I think cleanbrowsing is better or faster than Quad9, and has malware blocks

Blocks access to phishing, spam, malware and malicious domains. Our database of malicious domains is updated hourly and considered to be one of the best in the industry.
