I use:

nameserver 194.150.168.168
nameserver 213.73.91.35
nameserver 8.8.8.8

works fine. Google as gateway of last resort :)

I'd add also 77.88.8.8 (https://dns.yandex.ru) and 80.80.80.80
(http://freenom.world) to the list.

What do you think about the following configuration?

Tor -> DNS cache ->
1. Your own recursive DNS resolver
2. (if it fails) Your ISP's DNS resolver
3. (if it fails) Open DNS servers (maybe random of them?)


Try it out and please tell us in a few weeks how it is going.
Btw, there are a lot of big ISPs that use Google DNS per default … I am looking at you DigitalOcean, OVH and reseller etc …
As a german subject I trust the CCC and their DNS servers. They are a pain in the ass to our government ….

What are the best DNS servers to use for Privacy? I have been using OpenNic
Project servers which don't do logging, but recently found out about the
Open Root Server Network (ORSN) and have been considering using them as
well. Does anyone have any thoughts, positive or negative, about either of
these? Are there better public DNS servers to use?
Thanks
