  1. Hagezi: a new EU security and privacy focused DNS resolver

    Hagezi is known for its DNS blocklists: a collection of blocklists in different formats which can be used in adblockers like Ublock Origin or in DNS resolvers, in order to block malicious sites, tracking and advertisements. Now Hagezi has set up its own public DNS resolvers in Europe. Hagezi DNS uses the HaGeZi Multi Pro and HaGeZi Threat Intelligence Feeds, which means it will block ads, trackers, phishing sites and domains distributing malware. In contrast to DNS4EU, there are no different […]

  3. @mgorny I wonder why anyone would want to use #DNS4EU - a DNS service with EU-washing. Just check their MX DNS record. If they can’t get mail right, I don’t want to know how they do DNS.

  4. 0 days since #Whalebone fucked up completely and #DNS4EU started resolving #Gentoo .org to some random Japanese site.

  5. Bonjour à tous,
    je viens de tomber sur ce service de DNS qui protège la vie privée et les familles (ou pas, option à choisir) gratuitement : DNS4EU. Ce service est une initiative Européenne plutôt bienvenue je trouve. On peut faire du DNS basique, du DOH, du DOT, etc

  9. Hmpf, DNS4EU blockt aktuell @filen als "malicious malware" 🙄
    Falls Ihr wie ich beide Services verwendet und merkwürdige Sync-Fehler habt, wisst Ihr, woran das gerade liegt.
    Ich habe bei beiden Anbietern bereits ein Ticket erstellt...
    EDIT: Filen hat geantwortet: Sie sind offenbar auch von anderen DNS-Diensten wie QUAD9 geblockt. Man arbeite an einer Lösung...
    EDIT2: DNS4EU hat eben gemeldet, dass man filen.io entblocked hat!

  12. @PaulaToThePeople Danke ❤️ Immerhin unterdrückt #DNS4EU mir die unerwünschte Werbung ganz gut, aber falsch-positive Listeneinträge sind natürlich unschön. Ich kenne die Technik-Details bei DNS4EU nicht, könnte mir aber vorstellen, dass die auch aus verschiedenen Quellen Blocklisten zusammenführen. Wer immer da mit welchen Rechten blockt.

  13. DNS4EU blockt climatejustice.social ??

    Sehr sonderbar: Ich wollte mir gerade mal auf dem Smartphone die Seite von @stefanmuelller im Browser anschauen, aber mein Browser meckerte wegen eines falschen Zertifikats. Am Laptop ging es aber:

    Auf dem Smartphone ist noads.joindns4.eu als DNS-Server eingetragen, was ganz gut die Werbeseiten blockt (damit auch manche werbefinanzierte Seiten wie Spiegel). Der lenkt climatejustice.social auf die Warnseite um – strange.

  14. Part of regaining our digital sovereignty should be to reclaim our (UK) control of domain name servers (or at least offer trusted alternatives)

  15. One of the European DNS resolvers, DNS0.eu, has been discontinued. Use the new service

  16. DNS4EU is a European Union initiative providing a secure, privacy-compliant Domain Name System (DNS) resolver service. Launched on June 9, 2025, it aims to enhance EU digital sovereignty by offering an alternative to non-EU DNS resolvers. #dns #dns4eu #eu

  17. Now that people have told me that #Whalebone is the company behind #DNS4EU and not just some random scam suddenly sending me mail that they've created an account for me I've never asked for, I've checked the status about my false positive reports. Both have gotten an automated response that I'm going to get an answer in 24 hours.

    While the second one could be explained by holiday period, the first one is waiting since November 10th. This whole thing is a huge mistake.

  18. So I was pretty enthusiastic about #DNS4EU at first.

    Then I've discovered it blocklisted some random pastebin. Well, it happens. I mean, pastebins frequently get into trouble because of people pasting random shit. So I've filed an unblock request. I've suddenly got a mail to confirm registration in some random company's system — I suspect it was related to DNS4EU, but no clear indication. I've ignored it.

    Then they've blocklisted my mail provider, for no apparent reason. It's still blocked. I've switched to the "unfiltered" version to be able to access my mail again.

    Today I've gotten a mail via my backup MX. My main MX is up. My educated guess is that sysadmins using DNS4EU now get my mail redirected to their "site blocked" server. Isn't that great?

    PS. Maybe if more people filed unblock requests for "poczta.ftdl.pl", it would help. It's a non-profit e-mail provider.

  19. I remember the days, when the idea of #DNS4EU was introduced. It felt like a "response" from NextDNS to launch their own #European solution of a public resolver to get ahead of the launch of DNS4EU and acquire some of the market share. With that, they convinced me, that it does not have to take years, to launch a new DNS service. By now, around three years have passed until the announcement of the discontinuation of the service.

    Fare well, old friend!

  25. One advantage of using #AdGuardHome is that it provides statistics on the responsiveness of public DNS providers.
    For me, #DNS4EU 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 #quad9 at 500 ms. I have no idea why.

    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.

    What has been your experience with #DNS providers based in Europe? Do you have any recommendations? I'm interested in unfiltered DNS because I do the filtering in AdGuard Home.

  26. Na #LinuxDays právě skončila přednáška Josefa Chomyna o #DNS4EU. Resolvery této služby si můžete snadno nastavit i v routerech #Turris.

  27. I've contacted joindns4.eu with a few questions concerning the 2022 legal tender for the #DNS4EU project proscribing:

    »Lawful filtering: Filtering of URLs leading to illegal content based on legal requirements applicable in the EU or in national jurisdictions (e.g. based on court orders), in full compliance with EU rules.«

    Today, I've received a very interesting reply, the key paragraphs being:

    »we have consulted the applicable legal filtering both with internal and external legal agency and the result is that legal filtering is applicable to the connectivity providers but not applicable to the DNS service itself. Since there is another EU law of net neutrality which we are obliged to follow, there is no legal filtering applied for the Public service.

    The DNS4EU project itself covers wider service area than the DNS4EU Public service including the services for governments and connectivity providers. For connectivity providers we do provide an option of legal filtering where applicable by the respective country as required in tender.«

    If I'm not misreading this, their legal advisors are telling them that the DNS4EU public service can't have legal filtering based solely on national jurisdictions.

    I'm a bit puzzled as to why they needed to consult "internal and external legal agency", since I'd assume that for a service in production, such a principle should already be in place. The wording raises (a little) doubt on whether it is actually observed.

    If your ISP or Telco however uses DNS4EU as a commercial service, it gets filtered.

    They also sent me a sample screenshot of the "product administration console" where ISPs and Telcos get shown lists and regulations of their respective country (nothing spectacular).

    So, in a nutshell:

    • Use the public DNS4EU services directly; your ISP or Telco using (the commercial) DNS4EU services are not the same thing
    • Filtering may still occur with respect to EU legislation (they did not comment on that)
  28. I wanted to check out joindns4.eu as it's a project co-funded by the European Union.
    I was curious whether their so-called "Protective Resolution With Ad blocking" included Utiq, but yeah, they don't have a Mastodon account yet.
    Might come back to this later 🤷‍♂️

  30. I don't want to think about all the stuff that broke after my router had a firmware update earlier this week, and the amount of time it took to fix that. I just wanna enjoy that it's finally working again 🥴.

    On other news, my new DNS setting does feel quicker. But I didn't bother to actually test it, so a feeling is all I have.

  31. @Verfassungklage
    Also eigentlich nichts mit #DNS4EU wenn Firmen aus den #USA im Spiel sind. #Entgooglen war nicht nur ein Spruch, sondern echtes entfernen von #USTech aus den eigenen Systemen, egal ob PC, Smartphone oder Tablet. Nun kommt dieses Projekt um die Ecke und jubelt uns durch die Hintertür genau das wieder rein. Die meisten werden nicht jede App, jedes Programm, jedes OS darauf überprüfen woher es kommt. Steht #EU drauf wird das schon reichen, nur wirkliche Nerds gehen so in die Tiefe.

    BGP uses AS numbers for routing and the above output shows us the way from the Amsix route-views router to our destination in AS198121.

    Once again we can use whois to query information about these ASN. You just need to put AS in front of the number when asking.

    There is way more output, try for yourself:

    $ whois as198121 | grep country
    country:        CZ

    Ah, good - EU! Not so fast… Note that the second to last AS is always the same.

    $ whois as60068 | grep country
    country:        GB

    Last time I checked GB was not part of the EU. And it’s also a member of FIVE eyes.

    So we have a service sponsored by EU, to protect the privacy of EU citizens using mainly non-EU services and routing all of their traffic, at least for the sample I took, via an non-EU provider.
