I came across this today:
https://www.itworldcanada.com/article/cira-officially-launches-free-dns-firewall-for-consumers/429887
https://www.cira.ca/cybersecurity-services/canadian-shield/configure
so... no opinions... no comments... no discussion... just posting
links, multiple times, or doing marketing now, we are?
I don't use it and I just posted to see what comments came up. I have
pfSense running a DNS resolver, so it goes to the top level servers.
my not so humble opinion is that dns over https is very evil, even if
done under the guise of "privacy" or "protection/nanny" or "to protect
us" or under any other logic or reasoning.
my further opinions are that any "nanny" type "free" service where
someone else decides what and where i may or may not go or what i may
or may not see, needs to be either well regulated/controlled/open/published/etc
or simply not be accepted...
anyway, i am probably a minority as i also do not like/use/support very
popular and world dominating services such as 'whatsapp' and i do not
tweet or post photos of my food on insta and i have zero tiktok vids
I also tend to shy away from many of those services. I have better ways
to waste my time.
