I was thinking about this as well, but is there any real evidence that public DNS providers misuse your personal data? Google probably do a lot of tracking, but this must be all detailed in their privacy policy. I'm using Cloudflare DNS server and according to their blog: https://blog.cloudflare.com/announcing-1111/ - They don't track users. - They don't use data for targeting ads. - They don't write IP addresses to disk. - They delete transaction logs within 24 hours. So we assume they do as they promise, but if they were to break those promises, I think the regulators would come down on them quite hard. I don't know much about the legal aspects of it, so who knows. Privacy is the main reason I'm slowly moving away from Gmail and setting up my own email server (Postfix + Dovecot) on NetBSD virtual private server. I'd like to be managing my own email and nobody else.
