Re: DNS0: The European public DNS that makes your internet safer
#113If anyone's wondering which are the "High-risk TLDs" blocked in the "zero" filter: CF, CG, GA, GQ, ML, TK, TOP, WIN (right now, i guess it may change any time)
The "kids" filter blocks the same TLDs, so it allows XXX or PORN, i guess they just block individual 2nd level domains.
I just looped through IANA's TLD list with a simple script to get this. The resolver returns NXDOMAIN with "negative-caching.dns0.eu." SOA for the blocked ones:
$ kdig +tls ns tk @zero.dns0.eu

#114Pity they couldn't get a cool IP address like Cloudflare and Google. Since without some source of DNS you can't reach dns0.eu it's good to have something memorable like 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8
It's kind of ironic that their main IPv4 addresses are x.x.x.0, while their "ZERO" filtering version uses x.x.x.9.

#115> safe for children
Ah, it's filtered.
Someone decides what "children" means. Someone decides what "safe" means.
There are people who think that not just under-16s, but almost everyone is incapable of making adult decisions. And different (responsible, informed) adults may come to different conclusions about what is and isn't safe.
Curated DNS may suit some people, but I appreciate having access to the real internet.

#116> 193.110.81.0 Ah yes, easy to remember /s
My phone number is a little longer and yet I remember it, along with my own public IP address as well as my physical one. It depends how much you need to use it, of course.
I rarely phone myself. When my number changes, it takes me about a year before I can remember the new one. Numbers I actually call are much easier to memorize.

There are separate dns servers, the one for kids is different from the one mentioned on the landing page.

#118"dns0.eu is a French non‑profit organization founded in 2022 by Romain Cointepas and Olivier Poitrey — co-founders of NextDNS."
okay now it actually sounds way more interesting. Because NextDNS is by far my most beloved DNS resolver

As far as I see it is just yet another private organization that aims at watching what the population visits on the internet.

#120No support for Anonymized DNSCrypt nor ODoH. Guess they still want to see client IP addresses.
