(I have gigabit d/l service and the “gigabit-capable” Netgear is cutting the modem’s d/l speed in half.) Users have been clamoring for MikroTik to support DNScrypt, and more recently DNS over TLS, in its RouterOS for *three years*, but … bupkis! I’ve been eyeing an inexpensive MikroTik router for the high Ethernet throughput. From what I’ve read, DNScrypt can be installed only on routers running OpenWrt or Tomato.

Off-Topic Remark # 1: I’m going to have to figure out whether I can bypass my (effing) Netgear router and install DNScrypt on my computer. I got tired of that and stopped using it. When I used OpenDNS a while back, the servers changed a couple of times, meaning I had to temporarily use either my ISP’s DNS servers or Google’s (which are easy to remember) in order to search for OpenDNS’s *new* IP addresses. OpenDNS supposedly keeps logs for a year by default, although you can apparently configure to a degree what kind of information it keeps on you. (Put another way, both are neutral and uncensored.)Ĭloudflare is supposedly the speed champion, followed closely by Quad9. Unlike Quad9 and Google DNS, neither DNS.Watch nor Cloudflare blacklists “malicious” sites. It supposedly don’t keep records of originating IP addresses, but the other data kept is so extensive (geolocation, type of originating machine, time of day, and more) that it would facilitate individual identification *considerably*. I mean, I’m sure they have to keep *some* logs for a while, for diagnostic purposes, but they *claim* not to keep any.Ĭloudflare supposedly dumps all logs after 24 hours … *after* sharing all DNS query data - ostensibly without originating IP addresses - with APNIC Labs, and who knows how long *APNIC Labs* keeps it or what they do with it. DNS.Watch supposedly doesn’t keep any logs at all. I’ve read that DNS.Watch is even more “private” than Cloudflare. Will it become paid only? Will users still have to contribute bandwidth even if they provide other users of the service with bandwidth? Lastly, it is unclear what is going to happen when the service exits beta. Additional details about the connection process, encryption, and data that may go through other user devices would be welcome to shed some light. While the company states that connections are encrypted, it is unclear how secure the encryption is. There is also some uncertainty when it comes to Penguin Proxy.
Nord VPN or Private Internet Access subscriptions are available for $3 or $2 per month for a 2-year subscription plan. a lifetime subscription starts at about $15 on Ghacks Deals. Paid VPN service subscriptions start at next to nothing, e.g.

The free nature of the service has some disadvantages you pay with your IP address and bandwidth, and that may lead to a number of issues such as misuse that most users may want to avoid. Penguin Proxy may be attractive to users because it is free to use. Tor is recommended by the company for connections that require the highest security. Penguin Proxy INC., the company that operates the proxy service, states in the FAQ that users of its service should handle the connection as it if would be a public Wi-Fi Hotspot connection in other words: not very secure by default. The company behind Penguin Proxy promises that it will never include advertisement in Penguin Proxy or sell user data.Īnonymous logs are kept for 2 weeks during beta phase for debugging purposes but will be disabled "as Penguin Proxy becomes more mature".Ĭonnections are encrypted but they may be forwarded through other users of the service these devices, at the very least, know the originating IP and the target IP address of the request.
