For tracking users ? About as efficient as Google's.

Google's public DNS does not filter?

I second the question

AFAIK, Google's public DNS server do not block.


I have had to use Google's DNS at several facilities because
the DNS's provided by the ISP's did not resolve too many web
sites properly. Calling and complaining about each bad
resolution was just not worth my time.


I use Domain Name Speed Benchmark from
https://www.grc.com/dns/benchmark.htm. It has built-in lists of DNSes
and popular URIs. Launched, it tests each DNS in its list against the
entire list of URIs. For each DNS, it then produces a report showing
the averages speeds of resolveing URIs into IP addresses and the success
rate (a percentage) of resolving. It also highlights those DNSes that
redirect you to alternative sites (including domain registries) for
unresolved URIs. I use this occasionally to update which DNSes I want
my system to use.


I use it about once a year. My ISP's servers are usually the
fastest.
[]'s


My ISP's DNSs redirect requests for non-existent domains to the ISP's
domain registry service, asking me if I want to "buy" the requested
domain. I never use those DNSs.

eliminate itemized deductions for
health-care costs.
