Are you aware that your public resolvers are actively breaking DNS-based GeoIP (striping EDNS0-ECN and not using source IPs geo-localized as the requester would be)? and if so, what is the rationale for it?
- lathiat 9y agoYeah I tested it out and switched back, it made performance to Twitch in particular quite bad for me. I don't get that issue with Google DNS though.
- nextgens 9y agoGoogle's take good care of it... and they explain precisely what they do on the topic... https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/ecs https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/ecs https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/faq#locations https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/faq#locations (when EDNS0/ECS isn't supported) The tin foil hat brigade might suggest that this is deliberate to ensure that only what's served by cloudflare gets to be fast...
- acct1771 9y agoWhy is healthy speculation now considered "tin foil hat brigade"? Conspiracy theory isn't a dirty word. Speculation keeps people informed and alive.
