[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 3444133, member: 1"] Cloudflare announced this new DNS service yesterday. This morning I switched our router and my computer over to it. Took about 15 minutes, only because I fumbled around for a while figuring out what I had used for the router's password [URL='https://1.1.1.1/'][SIZE=5][B]You’re two minutes away from browsing a faster, more private internet.[/B][/SIZE][/URL] [SIZE=6][B]DNS: Internet’s Directory[/B][/SIZE] Nearly everything on the Internet starts with a DNS request. DNS is the Internet’s directory. Click on a link, open an app, send an email and the first thing your device does is ask the directory: Where can I find this? Unfortunately, by default, DNS is usually slow and insecure. Your ISP, and anyone else listening in on the Internet, can see every site you visit and every app you use — even if their content is encrypted. Creepily, some DNS providers sell data about your Internet activity or use it target you with ads. We think that’s gross. If you do too, now there’s an alternative: [URL='https://1.1.1.1/'][B]1.1.1.1[/B][/URL] [/QUOTE]
