This place was amazing, and worth a whole afternoon every time I went there. The owner was even more interesting, and a whole story in his own right. (I just looked at his wikipedia entry- wasn't aware there have been features on him!

No, canaries in our opinion are not a particularly good idea for a variety of reasons. We have not received any requests/demands for information in 2026 - we'll try to update the page to reflect that this is no longer a quarterly

We actually quite like DOQ and DOH3, both of which use QUIC. All modern Apple systems use QUIC. For instance if given 9.9.9.9 via DHCP they will automatically upgrade to encryption via DDR, then then upgrade to DOH3 with no intervention by

Our goal is not "insulation" as much as it is "transparency." Governments that do not adhere to legal frameworks like the ones you reference above are also governments that have inconsistent or easily-changed legal struc

Cost and staff time to pursue were not significantly higher than the return. We just want to help people with security and privacy and do DNS stuff - this legal fighting is absurd and misplaced and a spectacular waste of time, but here we a

What's even worse: the court fined us because they claimed this use case was in some way in contempt of their ruling. Then, when we won the overall case, that money was never returned because it wasn't specifically referenced by t

Hi - I'm with Quad9 (CTO). I'm going to try to put together a single post replying to some of these topics. First: We welcome the Mullvad users who will be shifted onto our systems, and we appreciate that Mullvad contacted us ins

I am constantly amazed that people rely on anyone else's compute infrastructure for things like doorbells, cameras, locks, switches, or sensors (network infrastructure is, at the moment, a seemingly acceptable integration for isolated

I purchased quite a few of those systems when they came out of production and went into the surplus supply chain. I don't recall anything unusual about the cubes with NeXTDimension boards that were in there though. Some had two boards,

This is conflating BGP routes and DNS. DNS data: Root server data is available via AXFR ("dig . AXFR @f.root-servers.net") but this isn't what you're referencing. Second level TLD server data is available is available a

This is a great project and I'd use it immediately, but I'm heavily invested in ONVIF devices and have no VISCA-based cameras. Plus, I'm betting that most VISCA devices aren't weatherproof. I know that VISCA has the very

Hi - the guy who wrote the blog speaking here - I'm the General Manager for Quad9. You're right - this was done by the team a bit too hastily. However, the document is public as a court filing, try to be as cautious as possible w
