Jiří Eischmann<p>One advantage of using <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/AdGuardHome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AdGuardHome</span></a> is that it provides statistics on the responsiveness of public DNS providers.<br>For me, <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/DNS4EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DNS4EU</span></a> is by far the fastest (10 ms). Perhaps it's because of their geographical proximity, as they're also based in Czechia. The slowest has been <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/quad9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quad9</span></a> at 500 ms. I have no idea why.</p><p>I'm also glad to learn that DoH doesn't have a significant speed penalty. It's 12 ms versus 10 ms for DNS4EU. So you don't have to trade privacy for responsiveness.</p><p>What has been your experience with <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/DNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DNS</span></a> providers based in Europe? Do you have any recommendations? I'm interested in unfiltered DNS because I do the filtering in AdGuard Home.</p>

Wie im Wallis werden da jetzt wahrscheinlich die Notfallszenarien an vielen Stellen nochmals überdacht.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/@quad9dns/114416276417809952" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mastodon.social/@quad9dns/1144</span><span class="invisible">16276417809952</span></a></p>
Max Resing<p>Received an email by the <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/NANOG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NANOG</span></a> mailing list in which they raise a pretty concerning thing: Apparently, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Spain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Spain</span></a> started to intercept or nullroute certain IP addresses of <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CDN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CDN</span></a> providers. The intent is to fight <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/piracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>piracy</span></a> during <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/football" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>football</span></a> matches.</p><p>Do the people who pass the list of IP addresses even understand the significance of blocking a bunch of <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CDN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CDN</span></a> networks of various providers? Seriously?! It <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/censors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>censors</span></a> access to tens of thousands of legitimate <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/websites" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>websites</span></a> which is blatantly accepted as a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/collateral" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>collateral</span></a> to help out some shady sports association in their <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/copyright" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>copyright</span></a>?</p><p>How much shadier can a decision be? Since this is a thing, maybe they can think about taking down entire regions in Spain the next football match?</p><p>The amount of collateral damage in the name of copyright is ridiculous. The <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/EuropeanUnion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EuropeanUnion</span></a> really has to step-up their game in addressing those concerning developments. I read about multiple such blatant decisions so far. Eyeing at you, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Quad9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quad9</span></a> and <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Sony" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Sony</span></a>...</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/copyrightinfringement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>copyrightinfringement</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/LaLiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaLiga</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/digitalsovereignty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>digitalsovereignty</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>eu</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/digitaleurope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>digitaleurope</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/corporatepower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>corporatepower</span></a></p>
Yann Büchau :nixos:<p>Losing my mind over <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/DNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DNS</span></a> bullshit. Seems that DNS servers (<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Quad9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quad9</span></a>) return different answers depending on the connection method, with built-in randomness.</p><p>dig +tcp &lt;domain&gt; @9.9.9.9 → always correct IP ✅</p><p>Anything else, no +tcp or +edns=0, +bufsize=4096 returns either the outdated or the correct IP, less erratic without edns and smaller bufsize. 🤡 🤪</p><p>So I guess I somehow need to d̶i̶s̶a̶b̶l̶e̶ ̶e̶d̶n̶s̶ o̶r̶ ̶c̶o̶n̶f̶i̶g̶u̶r̶e̶ ̶"̶m̶y̶ ̶D̶N̶S̶"̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶o̶n̶l̶y̶ ̶q̶u̶e̶r̶y̶ ̶v̶i̶a̶ ̶T̶C̶P̶.̶ use a better DNS server.</p>
