Today we are announcing support for a new proposed DNS standard - co-authored by engineers from Cloudflare, Apple, and Fastly - that separates IP addresses from queries, so that no single entity can see both at the same time.

RFC8482 cleans up the last remaining DNS meta-qtype, and allows for simpler DNS authoritative and DNS resolver implementations.

We implemented the DNS-over-TLS specification along with the RFC 7766 recommendations to minimize the overhead of using TLS.

Once upon a time, we launched Google Public DNS, which you might know by its iconic IP address, 8.

$ git clone –depth=1 https://github.

sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder

$ scutil –dns | grep nameserver | sort -u nameserver[0] : 1.

Threats to users privacy and security are growing.
