    I always have issues with dns blocking so I tried something sneaky I redirected all DNS requests to 1.1.1.1/1.0.0.1 and it worked brilliantly, for about a month when it stopped working all together, I don’t know if a cache was wiped or google saw what I was doing and made a special exception just for me, obviously I want to believe I’m a special snowflake taking the world’s largest internet company head on in an epic battle of wits and skill but I think the cache thing might be more likely for some reason.

      You mean redirecting on your router? How should google stop you from doing that? And why would you redirect to cloudflare lol

        It could start using DNS over HTTPS if it had enough failed requests. Those wouldn’t be able to be redirected
