The EU wants to stop feeding your DNS queries to Silicon Valley.
DNS4EU is the European Commission’s attempt to build a sovereign DNS resolver infrastructure that doesn’t route all your web lookups through the likes of Google, or Cloudflare.
DNS4EU aims to bring DNS resolution under EU oversight and privacy rules.
So, if you want 
-backed ad-blocking and child protection, you may want to give it a try.

@gcluley I would like my DNS resolution requests not to go through a) very large companies or b) state bodies. From a look at the front page only of this, it looks like it is a combination of a and b. Is that correct?
