I live in a country with a pretty heavy censorship, and it translates itself through the government asking the ISP to block some domains.
So by simply using a different DNS on your computer, you can avoid the censorship and access those domains. Up to now, I always used one of Google's DNS, which is 8.8.8.8 . It's pretty easy to remember, and I can even ask customers to type it over the phone.
But now that I have lost all trust and respect in Alphabet, I am searching for a new DNS. What is the one that you use? I need one that I can trust, and I need to be sure that the DNS won't disappear all of the sudden in a year or two, I don't want to have to change the DNS on 1 000 computers.
Use OpenNIC it's god teir and they support domains that ICANN is gay about or something
It's great. Seriously. Use it.
Also something something Israel has their hands in everything.

My own. unbound + dnscrypt mustard race.
Nolan Murphy
>they censor things. Source? Like what?
Josiah Flores
I like this guy.
Okay yeah OpenNIC is alpha tier.
This guy is god tier.

So you keep a copy of all dns records ever in the world locally? Because I'm pretty sure your local unbound still has to as other DNS servers about information to resolve stuff. Using unbound with 8.8.8.8 as a forward address is no different than setting 8.8.8.8 as dns in your client...

Use yandex security dns
Dylan Hill
>yandex security dns So Russian govt spying instead of Alphabet spying?
Use Level3's dns,they have been no hands on and have never censored anything.
If you really want more secure dns Setup unbound + dnscrypt + dnssec
Justin Peterson
OpenNIC

Unbound keep a local cache, OpenNIC + DNScrypt in case of cache miss.

The local cache must be built up somehow and it will only last the TTL really. You still need forward addresses to resolve shit
Blake Mitchell
After you initialize your cache from InterNIC and get the root name servers, unbound becomes it's own resolver...
Ethan Myers
That has nothing to do with caching. Caching will only keep the resolution requests in memory for a certain amount of time before performing them again.
Leo Roberts
This, OpenNIC is the most serious alternative
Logan Turner
>Caching will only keep the resolution requests in memory for a certain amount of time before performing them again. No. They will be cached locally on in the unbound database,thats the point of a dns cache
Christian Murphy
He is right, if a DNS request TTL is expired unbound query a third party server and refresh the cache entry in the local database. In my case that third party is an OpenNIC DNSCrypt enabled server.
