Fine then enforce that:
Any software that is used by EU citizens (downloaded from EU App Store or EU vendor website) should use EU DNS servers. (The user should be allowed to change the DNS on per device and per app lvl)
I’d be okay with that. And I think that solves your issue, my issue and EU’s issue.
- guitarbill 5y agoIs that feasible for millions or billions of already manufactured, exiting devices?
- martimarkov 5y agoSimply - no. Devices that are old enough which have no OS updates then... no. But any new device or already supported ones: yes why not. It's just an update from the manufacturer. You can even say: If the device is within EOL<1 year just update the DNS to the EU DNS. Other devices will need to have the option of choosing DNS addresses. Another approach is what we do with cars: we don't ban ICE cars, we have different "tiers" (Euro5, Euro6) of emissions and phase them out. We can do the same thing. Any device manufactured after 2020 will need to implement this "feature". It will take a few years to propagate but it is a very feasible approach.
- zepearl 5y agoDon't most devices use just DHCP, which in turn in most cases just use the DNS settings of the Internet Provider (IP) that is being used (indirectly, as usually the local router is set like that) => if a local government asks the IPs to use specific root servers then the problem should be solved? (or maybe I'm not understanding the core problem...)
