This is not true.

One of the main points of DQS is that the DNS service you use no
longer matters. They don't need to block the server - if you misused
the DQS (whatever the definition of misuse might be), they can simply
block *you* from accessing the data, not *all users of the same DNS
infrastructure*.

... but that does mean trusting 8.8.8.8 with your private secret.
