IBM is still a big corporation that might use your data.They claim not to store any personally identifiable information and are non-profit.Great security (DNSSEC) and a continuously-updated list of blocked malicious websites.Rolled out in 2017 by IBM, so it’s fast and being continuously upgraded.UncensoredDNS: Great privacy, uses DNSSEC, but gets slower as your distance from Denmark increasesġ.FreeDNS: Great privacy, no extra security, varying speeds.Based in Germany, so speeds are best in Europe.Great reputation for privacy, no logging.

If the service you’re testing isn’t listed, all of these tools have fields where you can enter custom DNS addresses. Using a Danish server while you’re in Chile will likely have a noticeable impact on your speed.īefore you settle on a server, test its speeds using a tool like DNS Jumper, DNS Benchmark, or NameBench. When it comes to milliseconds, geography matters – the farther your server, the slower the speed. Even better, though, some provide access to domains that aren’t even listed on most servers, like “.ti,” which is not an official domain since Tibet is technically part of China. Most public DNS servers keep more up-to-date records than ISPs, though this is hard to test. If the provider doesn’t list their logging policy, just do a search for “ logging policy.” 3. Try to find a service with anonymous logs (good, fairly common) or no logs (best but hard to find). Your ISP probably records your DNS requests, but many alternatives do as well. Services that use one of these protocols will usually list it in their FAQ or technical information. Most ISPs do not use any DNS security, so finding a provider that uses DNScrypt (Very good but requires some setup), DNSSEC (Good but not encrypted), or DNS-over-TLS/DNS-over-HTTPS (Very good but rare) is preferable.
