[QUOTE="Kuttz, post: 1027663, member: 36292"] NextDNS if well configured offers more protection than Quad9. Features like "Block Newly Registered Domains" for example blocks every domain that was created less than 30 days. Since most of the malicious, phishing domains are quite new and often short lived, the feature is quite effective in dealing with such threats and hardly cause any interference to normal browsing. Configurability is NextDNS highlight when compared to other DNS service providers. In addition to Ad blocking and security features, NextDNS can also block Native Windows Tracking to a good extent if you enable the feature. After enabling it, my 3rd most blocked tracking queries is from Windows 10 itself. ControlD, even though I haven't tried it yet but would recommend trying it over the ordinary DNS services like Quad9, Cloudflare etc. [/QUOTE]
