Gregory P. Smith <g...@krypto.org> added the comment:

Rule #1 for home users:  Never use your ISPs DNS.  Always configure a reputable 
one in your router.  If you can't control your router, configure your computer 
to ignore the router's DNS.

Classic best in breed non-ISP servers exist: 8.8.8.8 (google), 9.9.9.9 (quad9), 
1.1.1.1 (cloudflare?), etc.

ISPs often monetize DNS in nefarious ways.  If they control the router they can 
even decide to have it subvert those settings as DNS is unencrypted UDP so it 
can be redirected/intercepted/modified.  Avoiding that requires using DoH or 
DoT (DNS over HTTPS/TLS) but configuring that is way beyond what I'm capable of 
quipping in a box this small. :)
