I think it was Cloudflare but you might be right that it was Google - either way, I'm just using default DNS from my ISP, and only had issues for the past few weeks (and only with that one domain, .is not the others - while iirc the kn

Brutalist architecture can be done with good acoustics in mind, it just takes the same sort of planning & design that a non-brutalist building also needs. The Barbican Centre in the UK is a very famous example of a music (and arts) venu

Most people who want a router with open source firmware get one that's compatible with OpenWrt and use that, is there a reason you don't consider that to be using open source firmware?

Not purely market size, though it's a very important part for sure. The other part is how likely a country is to try to enforce their laws, and what ability they will have to do so. Even if a hypothetical US company had an equal number
