This somehow reads with the same energy as those "please don't download scientific papers for free from , that would be so terrible" posts.

This is some dumb shit.
I'm missing the part where consumers are required to use their ISP DNS. I never do, in favour of CloudFlare DNS, Google DNS, etc

invest in VPN providers
I'm guessing lofgren has already done that
Wait until they start "the VPN wars". it's invariable at this point. Only the VPN that has bribed The Emperor the most will survive.

Article 1) Streaming prices going up Article 2) websites being blocked
After the US does this, Europe will be soon to follow guaranteed, then everyone will be trying to pipe through the same VPN exit server in Barbados
We already have site blocking in France.
oh cool, tackling the key issues facing us right now
Okay.... And that helps anyone how? Where's the other foot? I would like to help? I have a sledge hammer! C'mon don't be shy.
But, I got ideas! How about everyone who files for a patent has to give the Democratic party all their money or how autocorrect wants, all their monkey! That'll show them!
And how about everyone who goes to and graduates from college must serve a 30 year sentence? Fabulous!
Need a car license? Just smash your car on this steel wall! Yey! So easy! So much better than racists!
WTF! Put the thinking cap back on dudes!
Just what we needed.
Giant meteor is what we need.
99942 Apophis is scheduled to come visit for a near pass on Friday, April 13, 2029. It briefly held the highest rating of any object ever on the Torino scale when it was discovered 20 years ago. Another asteroid detected just last week is currently a Torino 3 but also won't be here for 7 years and only has a 1.4% chance of striking Earth based on current observations.

Can't help but wonder if it's bad luck if it hits us, or bad luck if it misses us at this point.
(/s shit's fucked but I still prefer getting missed)
@some_guy is there such a thing as an open source dns and encrypted DNS? Or federated DNS?
It's actually surprisingly centralized.
It sort if have to be. In the end there has to be one source of truth for each TLD, otherwise who is to say who owns foo.com, and what it resolves to?
And then the same structure for assigning TLD ownership.
But there is nothing stopping you from running another DNS service, call it DNS2 with different root servers, etc. It is just going to be extemely hard to convince people to use it.
I use a self hosted pihole for DNS. It needs an upstream DNS server for resolving unchached dns's. I have pihole point to quad9 then cloudflair then google then I have it point to a bunch of unfiltered DNS servers across the world.
Pihole also let's you install unbound. Your own recursive resolver. So you don't have to rely on google or quad9 etc.
Cool I might do that. I assume I can find a docker compose somewhere.
They're absolutely is, it's called onion routing, get around DNS blocks with tor as long as you know where you're going.
