In an ongoing escalation of its fight against online sports piracy, media giant Canal+ secured court orders compelling DNS providers Quad9 and Vercara to block access to pirate streaming sites in France. Quad9 says that it’s determined to appeal what it sees as an absurd application of copyright law. For now, however, it will block the targeted domain names globally.
Block the French government. Done.
@Joker Do we need to start running our own DNS servers?
I already can’t do half the things I’m trying to do on my network, now I gotta figure out DNS?!?
Yesterday.
Already am.
Can you elaborate on this a bit? I’m currently running pihole. But mostly because I had a spare raspberry pi.
But it uses quad 9 for dns records. How do you establish your own dns that does not rely on other providers?
Well, there’s the ALFIS project
Time to change to ipv6 ip that not change? Then dns not necessary, not even domain registrar.
What even different to go after domain registrar? If domain unregistered, same result as block on all dns globally?
Huh? Dns and ipv4 are two different things. You’re probably thinking of NAT.
