I experimented with 1.1.1.3 on a small network segment by configuring DHCP to make 1.1.1.3 the default. I found that they resulted in numerous false-positives that turned out to be a real nuisance. As I went around to various machines and either overrode the DHCP settings with another DNS and/or added lines to the hosts file, I decided that just because you _can_ use DNS for content filtering, doesn't mean it's a particularly effective modality.
Cloudflare does have a tool that allows you to correct false positives...

But I found that the corrections I made were ignored with only one exception. The one I successfully corrected took many attempts over several weeks.
I ended up throwing in the towel on the whole thing and giving up on Cloudflare DNS altogether. That's not to say that others couldn't find value in it. I just found it to be more trouble than it was worth.
