Quad9 features threat blocking on all servers. This relocation is/was a huge deal because Switzerland has some of the most robust consumer data and online privacy around. As of writing, they're still working on being incorporated fully in Switzerland.

Quad9 is based in Switzerland, having relocated from being primarily based in the US. There is no sign-up required to use the service the IP addresses for their DNS servers are listed and available for all to use at will. Their DNS servers feature no logging, retaining no personal data about users who utilize their servers. Specifically, their infrastructure spans 150 locations in 90 different nations. Quad9 DNS servers are found around the world. Quad9 is a non-profit organization that operates operates high performing and privacy-respecting public DNS resolvers. Hopefully apps will provide for both (fake VPN & DNS), but so far one that i know has updated does not and now isn’t helpful as 14 ignores DNS setting too often and no VPN in status bar or similar letting you know it’s working or not working out and about with phone.Hosted by Global Secure Layer, Packet Clearing Houseĭependent on user server/subscription choiceĪdblocking and malicious domains dependent on user choice I do wish they would allow DNS setting to work when using a personal VPN otherwise I will still need to run a DNS app as a fake VPN. I knew something was different when I updated to next beta and my VPN app no longer appear as a DNS choice. Outside of leakage and not even respecting turning back to automatic DNS setting I did like having it working with regular and personal VPNs in that one ios 14 beta.

Checking more often now, and Its usually not working and using default of network.

I was thinking I was using my own DNS until I realized some things not blocked and checked. It’s almost the opposite of how it worked under a beta when DNS app took over all DNS regardless of setting or using regular VPN. I can get it to work at times, but using a VPN for a moment then using going off VPN seems to revert to default of Wifi or cell network even if one of the two DNS apps/profiles are selected. Other problem I have had is the new DNS selection for apps that support it or even AdGuard profile is it not actually using the respective services as DNS revolver most of the time. Hard to reconnect at times (or slow at least). I have been having problems with vpns as well.
