Thoughts on recursive DNS service provider decentralisation, and an update on the status of current DNS privacy initiatives.
We are currently seeing an unfortunate trend of centralisation on a few DNS service providers (like Google, Cloudflare and such). People are moving away from ISP DNS resolvers for good reasons, including censorship, missing privacy features and more - but they are moving to a few very large providers. The downsides of centralising are obvious, but the path towards decentralisation is never easy. I will discuss using my UncensoredDNS project as a blueprint for starting smaller, community driven DNS providers.
DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) can be used to secure the integrity and confidentiality of DNS traffic between client and recursive resolver. Both can be used either directly from the actual client (like a laptop or a phone) or through a stub resolver on a home internet router. I will cover the current state of client- and server-side software support for these protocols, explaining how they work and how to use them.
