DNS Libre - at https://dnslibre.com.mx/ is offering #DoT, #DoH and clear #DNS lookup (UDP port 53) - and they also offer "noads" protection option at DNS lookup level.
Open Root DNS at https://dns.open-root.net is offering a plethora of #TLDs (65 to be precise) including .mexico
The catch? None of this is "authorised" by the masters of the corporate Internet, so it won't work unless client software is configured to use DNS servers that are participating in alternate root DNS.
You know... this is something that's been an issue for decades!
I'm old enough (watch me dox myself) to remember registering a free handle at the original network solutions*, before DNS became the virtual real estate it is today, peddled by money spinning sales sharks, and doing enormous damage to self hosting - nudging people to maintain their "web" presence purely on walled gardens controlled by Meta Platforms Inc.
And despite this issue being decades old, not ONE single NGO in the democracy and connectivity promotion business has EVER mentioned it.
Yes, I'm aware there are issues, but a bit like the SSL cert business was an insane money spinner - again selling virtual worthless nothings for a absolute fortune, until #EFF's LE came along, there is ZERO barrier to a technically and socially better DNS, or something altogether superior.
* dot com was free (as in beer) until about 1995. Did you know that? I'm geniunely interested to get an idea of how many people know that.
On #DNS.
There's always a shadow side to everything, the unintended consequence, the unintended reveal.
Making #communications infrastructure dependent on #domains such as dot org is, well like any dependency outside of one's control, a serious weakness.
So not only is the money* paid into this system highly unfair, we can now see revealed that politically.. It "can and will be used against you", as they say.
* one hundred and thirty five million! USD was paid speculatively for the presumably lucrative dot web #TLD.
THIS is why domains cost money.
There is no technical impediment to running a perfectly working network of decentralised DNS resolvers on todays internet. Attempting to justify the costs, with "because it costs" is absurd.
