[QUOTE="blackice, post: 981518, member: 79035"] A lot of the recommendations to change DNS servers tout that it will speed up browsing, but in a lot of cases it can do the opposite by routing you to suboptimal CDNs. A good reason to change the DNS settings is for filtering. For privacy there are incredibly accurate methods to reverse DNS lookups even on CDNs that host multiple sites on the same IP. Your ISP can see what you are doing, so you might as well get the benefit of the optimized network performance if their DNS system isn’t junk…again unless you are filtering. And there are ISPs with poorly constructed DNS infrastructure. [/QUOTE]
