It always puzzles me when people speak of "routing" in conjunction with DNS.
Makes me question what else they are incompetent in.
They are fairly competent and cheap. A happy bunny customer here

Like the idea. But… 1) Claim privacy first and then have a cookie banner. 2) Say “routing” when you mean location/IP based DNS. 3) Is that a loosely typed language in the scripting engine? Not sure I would want DNS queries to be relying on that. I am sure there is still some innovation left in DNS. SDDNS I’d call it: Software defined DNS. Especially with the splinternet we are walking into these days. Just don’t thin…
Cookies as tech say nothing about privacy. If you want to store information that you refuse to share your private data - that almost certainly is getting stored in a cookie. You can route connections on different layers than IP routing. We commonly talk about http request routing as in dispatch based on the domain/path. I'm happy with "routing" as in directing traffic via DNS resolution. I doubt anyone here is confus…
I disagree. As a former network engineer the title "We're transforming internet routing" and subtitle "Rethinking Internet Routing" [my emphasis] makes me think of IP based routing first. I think they could have been clearer or picked a less grandiose title.
Don't get me wrong, on the surface this looks like a neat tool.
It always puzzles me when people speak of "routing" in conjunction with DNS.
People also speak of routing with respect to web applications and woodworking.
Does location-based DNS even have a future? fly.io doesn't seem to think so: https://fly.io/blog/the-5-hour-content-delivery-network/
1. Location based DNS is incredibly useful
2. Sending user data (IP address, location) to authoritative nameservers is out of vogue.
There are efforts to send privacy-friendly geo info to authoritative nameservers. But they aren't getting much traction. Which means location based DNS is getting less useful by the day (because it's not working for as many people).
there is so much wrong with this site i thought it was april 1st. i thought it's been proven that geo-ip data is not reliable? second.. DNS is not routing.
Now I'm curious. Do you have a link for the geo-ip unreliability by any chance?
So I can easily believe that it’s wildly inaccurate for a significant amount of the world.
