tl;dr - their approach to censorship is to implement a national DNS server (yes, single point of failure, and yes it goes down a lot) and block outgoing DNS packets.
- lmz 12y agoSome ISPs also use transparent proxies, so unless they use HTTPS for everything, using an alternate DNS server won't help them much (except maybe for the reliability part).
- stephengillie 12y agoI wonder how they're going to block the packets - are they just blocking Port 53, sniffing, or using some mandatory proxy for the root hosts.
