  1. If you care about privacy, you know that standard "safety" tools often trade your data for protection.

    Using WPA3 encryption and a custom DNS like OpenDNS or Cloudflare can shield your kids from 90% of malicious domains without selling your browsing habits.

    However, there is still a way for "ad-trackers" to build a profile on your child.

    I’ve detailed the workaround in our latest technical guide:

  4. Manchmal muss ich echt schmunzeln:
    Da wird gegen ein #illegales #Portal geklagt, was ja richtig ist, nur ist das völlig erfolglos. Die #Provider sperren den #DNS Eintrag auf ihren Servern und das wars. Die Seite ist weiterhin da. Wer allerdings #opendns & co nutzt als dns #Server in seinem #Router bekommt von der Sperre nichts mit. Wenn man was ändern will muss man die Betreiber ausfindig machen und die Server abschalten.

  5. Another question: Looking to set up DNS on a kids laptop with Linux, and found some options. But what I can't find, are reviews/comparisons of the family safe options. Anyone with more insights/experience with family safe versions of #Cloudflare , #Yandex , #openDNS , #UltraDNS , ...

  9. CW: re: #infosec SecuredDNS🤝👉☣️ #YIL

    Last week I finished logging #OpenDNS being used to block #GMail login's.

    Put simply OpenDNS would block connections TO mail.google.com via DNS. I logged this over a 72+hr period btw. 😅

    Luckily all these dumb DNS things caught the attention of several ppl at #Cisco.

    Stay frosty out there when #Gmail goes brrrrrr 👉🥶

  11. #OpenDNS will man nicht benutzen, die machen DNS kaputt.
    Und dabei hat ein DNS-Server genau eine Aufgabe: DNS-Anfragen korrekt beantworten.
    ❯ dig +short x.y.z.de @resolver1.opendns.com
    146.112.61.108
    ❯ dig +short x.y.z.de @1.1.1.1
    91.36.216.x
    ❯ dig +short -x 146.112.61.108

    Hintergrund: Ex-Kollege hat zu Hause eine fixe IP, symmetrisches (?) Gigabit - also warum nicht ein Mattermost betreiben für die anderen Ex-Kollegen, also die Alumni?
    Und mein pihole hatte OpenDNS als (einen) Upstream.
    Also doch wieder Google und Cloudflare, die lassen wenigstens die Finger vom DNS.
    Oder hat jemand einen Tipp für andere, verläßliche öffentliche rekursive Resolver? DNSSEC ist zwingend.

  13. Just learned how OpenDNS (now part of Cisco Umbrella) can wipe out a bootstrapped startup with one wrong flag. See what happened, why it can happen to you, and why it matters for every indie builder: rcx.it/opendns

    in short, when Government agencies insist a DNS provider block (or worse poison) the resolver for a given pirate site, companies have responded in different ways

    OpenDNS = Would rather stop serving an entire country than capitulate

    Cloudflare = Blocks the IP but gives an explicit error message stating that it is being forced to do so.

    Google DNS = Complete & total submission, DNS won't resolve, leaves customers in the dark.

    En réponse : À compter du 28 juin 2024, en raison d’une décision de justice en France […] le service OpenDNS n’est plus disponible pour les utilisateurs en France. Nous nous excusons pour la gêne occasionnée.

    This all started with an interesting post by Antonio Gabor, a Network Security Engineer, which highlights many posts on France’s decision to block #OpenDNS as a direct result of a court order targeting football piracy.

    Update 4 August 2020: replace CHAOS class by CH in dig commands so they work with kdig too, Quad9 now does support QNAME minimisation, Quad9 has alternative servers available with ECS support and without QNAME minimisation, Google now also does QNAME minimisation.
