Hyva··on DNS Performance compared: CloudFlare 1.1.1.1 x Google 8.8.8.8 x Quad9 x OpenDNS
There's a lot more to consider than just performance when deciding whom to share your browsing habits with. Why would you choose Cloudflare or Google?

This isn't an endorsement of Quad9 or OpenDNS; I just don't know enough about them. However, the fact that Cloudflare and Google are privacy-and-security nightmares is well documented.

You can mask and encrypt data going over the network. The only thing they can do is prevent usage of networks entirely.
Hyva··on Google Has a Striking History of Bias Against Black Girls
> I’m always amazed how often the “surprise” that digital technology is in fact not unbiased and robotic in nature keeps getting written about. Algorithms that optimize for click through rate for ads and search relevancy will inevitably be a reflection of ourselves and all of the shitty things various people believe.

What you just observed and described is that technology _is_ unbiased and robotic. The bias is in the humans. You can't remove it with a software bandage; the software is working as intended.
