The post says: > Side note: for those wondering, Tailscale is Canadian and can't see the content of connections (although if you're worried about this it's also possible to self-host using Headscale). However this is no longer the case. From Tailscale's Terms of service "Schedule A", "New customer accounts on or after September 3, 2024" are bound to "Tailscale US Inc., a Delaware corporation"

It can’t see the contents of connections but it records all the metadata. You know a lot about what the contents are going to be based on the ports. The default configuration of Tailscale will also collect all your DNS requests. https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale/issues/16165 https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale/issues/16165

      Then I'm struggling with the ticket in question: how do you use the Tailscale DNS service without sending Tailscale any data at all?

So Tailscale is now a US company and you can't bind to Headscale? Enshittification.
