Hello everyone. Thank you for accessing this thread.
Would you give me some answers for resolving my question?
I'm having a question about using Public DNS Service. The focal point is the keeping privacy of myself.
I am contracting a small cable-TV company in my hometown for connecting Internet through Cable-TV network.
The speed of the network is very slow. I guess that the one of the reason is DNS Server of ISP.
I configured my PC to use Google Public DNS instead of original DNS Server of my ISP.
I am feeling faster in the web-browsing speed than using ISP's DNS Server.
But now, I am having some worries about keeping my privacy when I use Public DNS Server.
I have heard that Google Public DNS service logs some personal information of users; IP Address, Area, and more...
By the way, I am having some Google Accounts for using some services (e.g. Gmail.)
My Gmail account is including my privacy; my address, emails from shopping sites, and important information of some other web services accounts.
Will my personal information (privacy) in Google account be associated with web-browsing data (Accessed Site's URL, and IP-address, Area) by Google?
The risk of invasion of privacy by using Public DNS Services are realistic?
Should I stop using Google Public DNS? or not?
Which DNS is the best, Google Publich DNS, Cisco Open DNS, or original DNS of my provider?
Did you know about it, and right way for keeping privacy?
Thank you very much!
