I found this quite amusing as it seems as if Google is trying to impersonate Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1, whereas 010.010.010.010 is indeed the octal representation of 8.8.8.8.

- eyelidlessness 5y agoAmusingly, iOS thinks the text “010.010.010.010” is a phone number.
- csouza-f 5y agoIndeed octal. The second DNS is 010.010.04.04 == 8.8.4.4
- zh3 5y agoEver tried to google 192.168.1.1? Here at least it gives lots of bogosity (all in the name of keeping us safe from what we actually wanted to get to).
- pxc 5y agoGoogle is for web search, and http://192.168.1.1 http://192.168.1.1 is not on the web
- Dylan16807 5y agoGoogle also has info boxes, and this would be a very good place for one.
- zh3 5y ago...in which case they shouldn't give misleading replies like "192.168.l.l", n'est ce pas?
- dcminter 5y agoFor clarity - 8.8.8.8 has been around as a free public DNS for a good bit longer than 1.1.1.1 has I think you probably know that already, but there are at least a couple of ways to interpret what you wrote. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Public_DNS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Public_DNS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1.1.1.1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1.1.1.1
- q1w2 5y agoAlso, for those who don't know - you can use 1.1.1.2 which blocks all known Malware domains, and 1.1.1.3 to also block all adult content. There's also always dns.adguard.com to block Ads (which is what I use on my phone).
