I experienced how many good tech people don’t understand DNS and how this just solidifies control over DNS by the big players.

What a ton of people don’t understand is that you don’t need a DNS forwarder (google/cloud flare/ISP).

If you setup your DNS right it just goes to the ROOT servers and you cut out those parties spying on DNS traffic.

Initial requests are a bit slower because you don’t benefit from the forwarder’s cache, but after a while, most stuff is coached and it’s not a big deal.

Maybe I’m totally wrong here, but this is how I understand it.
