Best DNS for privacy?
Best DNS for privacy?
I read a bit about using a different DNS for Privacy and I think the best one should be quad9? Or is there anything better except self hosting a DNS?

The one from your ISP. Your ISP can see your traffic anyway, so you gain nothing by using a third-party DNS server.

Okay, maybe I got the question wrong. If you care about content blocking, then you are right (though I'd prefer self-hosted resolvers like pi-hole or AdGuard Home over third party resolvers).

If you use the same or similar blocklist it does not provide additional protection though.

As far as I read (I'm no expert!) they could check the SNI of the TLS handshake if they want. But using the DNS of the ISP is handing them the data right in a way they can analyze/use them very easily afaik?
Still learning about this topic!
They route your traffic, hence they can see all IP addresses you communicate with. With a reverse lookup you can then usually find out the address too.

Mt ISP can't see my traffic or my DNS lookups lol
Congrats but then you are using more than just another DNS resolver/different DNS technology.
Yes, if you want privacy then you need a good VPN provider
