Yes, lets do some threat modeling. In the first model we have the ISP that host a DNS resolver. The traffic goes from the client to the server hosted by the ISP.
In the second model we have a CDN that host a DNS resolver. Where is the CDN hosted? At the ISP. The traffic goes from the client to the server hosted by the ISP.
How has the threat model changed? The CDN has a contract between it and the ISP, and legally this should mean that the ISP have no legal right to look in the server that they host and copy the information.
For law enforcement this should change nothing. I don't expect the CDN contract with the ISP to radically limit the secret police, nor the regular police, or even the courts ability to demand censoring of websites. The last part might however generate some court cases and thus delays before things return to the same situation we have today.
