A yes, a public dns resolver funded by taxpayers money and nothing of it is open source…
Sounds like a massive waste of money to me. Just give someone like Mullvad (they already have a DNS service that is open source) that money instead of trying to be another shitty DNS Resolver.
Also the company behind this looks incredibly scummy and their products are mostly buzzword-bullshit. The whole company is based on selling a DNS blocklist for as much money as possible.

People want to be safe online. They are even willing to pay for it. They just want their telco to offer them a smooth way to get there. Common cybersecurity products struggle with low adoption rates due to the need for downloads. Whalebone Aura requires no installation or updates and activates with a single click.
That’s sounds a lot like the ISP is implementing some kind of deep network inspection “to protect you from the internet”… aka censoring.
Why? Ao they can block what they deem to be a pirate site? Nope. Run your own Adguard Home.
Not sure about adguard, but unless you are running it with unbound or similar, you still have to point it at a DNS server someone else controls.
With unbound you go straight to the root hint servers.
Didn’t know about unbound. Thanks.
Mullvad DNS has been great also.
The EU is already trying to block and censor ips via DNS, so I don’t trust this initiative at all, nor, frankly, do I trust the EU as an organization. It should stick to foreign policy, not trying to overrule our national governments to force legislation onto us that we don’t want.
This isn’t really on topic but since you mentioned it, the only way for Europe to stay relevant is if we integrate more.
That depends on what you mean by integrate. There are many clear examples where it makes no sense to enforce homogenous legislation. Europe is a big place, and it makes sense to have different systems in different places.
Take tires for instance - in the Scandinavian countries we require winter tires for the season, something which would make no sense in Italy for instance.
You should read their policy
I have.
It includes “compliance with EU regulations” which in this case is soon going to involve redirecting and tracking visitors to sites such as thepiratebay.
Fully expect this to be a move to enable them to enforce this via blocking DNS providers that don’t comply with censorship lists, instead directing people to use this.
I don’t need an EU DNS, I already have OpenDNS.
That guy thinks that the EU is one entity, not consisting of many member states.
Also it sounds like he only read headlines. Otherwise he would know that the EU survelliance bill is a proposal, which any member state can make in a democracy.
Guess the propaganda got to him if he belives more what he reads in a headline instead of what actions the EU actually makes.
The EU is one entity, consisting of several member states. Just like my own country consists of many regions and municipalities with their own elected officials.
Member states are forced to comply with legislation passed by the EU, even if a majority of the citizens of a state do not want to implement it. Technically there are two other options - sufferimg massive fines and punitive actions by the EU, or leaving. I’d rather not have to endure either of those, so instead I complain, loudly, online, to politicians, MPs and MEPs.
Yeah, sure. Go complain about your life in the EU. Must be awful.
Maybe go outside and enjoy your privileged life in Europe.
Nice, but a shame it’s not as easy to remember as 8.8.8.8.
Seems quite easy to remember with a nice jingle, like the emergency number… 🎵0118 999 881 999 119 725🎶. 3🎵.
800 588 2300 Empire today
Also 1.1.1.1 and 9.9.9.9
Also Quad9 is Swiss which may actually better than EU?
Not sure why would it be better. EU provides strict personal data regulations guarantees
Switzerland has pretty decent privacy laws of its own, why you think Swiss bank accounts are a meme?
Cause they have nazi gold in their banks. Your data is belong to them. Don’t be confused!
It’s not just the nazis. Rich fucks from all over the world keep money there to hide it from authorities. Though I guess that’s changing now.
That’s it, I can’t use it, fuck.
Any counter indication to using this from Canada?
