OoenDNS is nothing special, they were bought out by Cisco a while back. Don't use that trash anyway.

    What is a good alternative in this context?

    Quad9 DNS is a not-for-profit run by Quad9 Foundation based out of Switzerland.

    They offer recursive resolvers, DNSSEC, DoH, DoT, QUIC protocol, they have the standard IPv4 and IPv6 plus have malware blocking/filtering and ECS or choose everything unfiltered.

    Benefits are no-log policies, private, no data sold or shared per the transparency report

    I've been promoting and advocating for them for probably close to a decade when I found them as a tech support guy. Personally, I've got my workplace setup this way, any friends and family, other businesses I consult for, and my VPN custom-configured to utilize these services.

    Request History and Summaries

    Interesting, if I understand this section correctly, 2026 was the first year they had requests for data, despite their guidance and not having any ability to respond to a request.

    Edit: more interestingly, this test domain lists 1 instance directly, not via a transparency canary. https://www-test.quad9.net/about/transparency-report/
