In an ongoing escalation of its fight against online sports piracy, media giant Canal+ secured court orders compelling DNS providers Quad9 and Vercara to block access to pirate streaming sites in France. Quad9 says that it's determined to appeal what it sees as an absurd application of copyright law. For now, however, it will block the targeted domain names globally.

@Joker Do we need to start running our own DNS servers?

I already can’t do half the things I’m trying to do on my network, now I gotta figure out DNS?!?

Nah it’s not really hard. Look at unbound. If you have pihole already, adding unbound is really very easy.

Can you elaborate on this a bit? I’m currently running pihole. But mostly because I had a spare raspberry pi.

But it uses quad 9 for dns records. How do you establish your own dns that does not rely on other providers?

On mobile atm. Look for pi-hole + unbound. Uses root DNS. Might take a tiny bit longer to resolve at first, but as long as root DNS is uncensored it should be the way to go.
