    You seem very confused. Do you think that using a different DNS prevents blocking like the recent France porn block? It doesn’t.

    Do you know why people use different DNS servers to the ones from their ISP? In some EU countries, in particular Germany, this is actually quite private already because data protection laws prevent the ISP from recording and using/selling the info.

    You do understand that these servers aren’t run by government (s), right?

      It’s pretty clear that’s why I mentioned Germany? Since in Germany blocking is used at DNS level… So in which country are the servers located and which laws do the operators have to comply with? Data retention, etc., is also something they really want to push through… then everything will be logged later… Server on EU soil = no data protection or anything else.
