No, wait.
Users of the DNS service get the privacy guarantee.
Non-users do not. If you floodping 1.1.1.1 you are not a user of the DNS service and the privacy terms don't apply to you. Rather you're a member of the Misconfiguration Club, and the site you're pinging has the usual right to analyse your pings.
- comboy 9y agoWhat if somebody has a bad DNS resolver and what he qualifies as a valid DNS request, researchers do not. I get the general idea, but having "user-privacy oriented" and "we collect everything and make it available to many researchers" services under the same IP may lead to some issues.
- cesarb 9y agoEven a bad DNS resolver will still send to port 53. The privacy policy probably applies to anything on ports 53, 80, and 443.

- Arnt 9y agoOh, in that case you can apply those issues to all of Cloudflare. They serve many thousands of websites from each node. God only knows how many different privacy policies may apply depending on which bytes you send to TCP port 80.
