The company sells itself on its ability to block malicious domains by collecting intelligence from 'around 20' public and private sources.

Quad9 is an experienced DNS outfit which has been providing a fast and free DNS service since August 2016. Google's support site offers only very basic guidance targeted at experienced users, warning that "only users who are proficient with configuring operating system settings make these changes." If you're unsure what you're doing, check the tutorials from a provider such as OpenDNS, remembering to replace its nameservers with Google's: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. If you'd like to be able to assess the significance of Google's privacy policy, for instance, you can read up on absolutely everything the service logs contain to find out for yourself.
There's a further benefit for experienced users in Google's detailed description of the service.
'Permanent' logs drop any personally identifiable information and reduce location details to the city level, and all but a small random sample of these are deleted after two weeks.

The service logs the full IP address information of the querying device for around 24 to 48 hours for troubleshooting and diagnostic purposes. Privacy can't quite match the 'we don't keep anything' promises of Cloudflare, but it's not bad. Google Public DNS is a simple and effective replacement for your own ISP's nameservers. If you have any problems, Cloudflare offers a community forum where you can ask questions or see what others are doing, a nice extra touch which we'd like to see followed by other providers. The one caveat is that Cloudflare has introduced content filtering for malware and adult content blocking, with their 1.1.1.2/1.0.0.2 and 1.1.1.3/1.0.0.3 services respectively, but this is an option a user can choose rather than have forced on them. The product doesn't offer ad-blocking or attempt to monitor what you can access, and what you can't. Additionally, mobile users can use WARP which secures all of the phone’s internet traffic. These are very generic-you get one set of instructions for all versions of Windows, for instance-but there are some pluses (IPv6 as well as IPv4 details) and you should be able to figure it out. The 1.1.1.1 website has some setup guidance, with simple tutorials covering Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, Linux and routers. Cloudflare has retained KPMG to audit its practices annually and produce a public report to confirm the company is delivering on its promises. And these claims aren't just reassuring words on a website. Any logs that do exist will be deleted within 24 hours. Cloudflare doesn't just promise that it won't use your browsing data to serve ads it commits that it will never write the querying IP address (yours) to disk. These start with performance, and independent testing from sites like DNSPerf shows Cloudflare is the fastest public DNS service around for raw worldwide speeds. Best known for its top-rated CDN, Cloudflare has extended its range to include a new public DNS service, the catchily-named 1.1.1.1.Ĭloudflare has focused much more on the fundamentals.
