... My point is that public service websites, which provide vital public health services , on which people's lives and human rights depend , should NOT be on some "Google Server Accessable Only" Hidden Internet .
And they aren't.
What about non-technical users, who may not have a smartphone, who just assume "the HSE website is down", and as a result, never get a Booster Appointment ? Maybe the HSE are using this situation to limit access to Covid vaccines & Passports only to wealthier people with smartphones and full-featured internet accounts ? That would get alot of problems off their books, and they'd have to spend alot less on vaccine .
You're tilting at windmills.
It is frightening that there is developing this "Google User Only" "Hidden Internet" , accessable only to users who agree to their web behaviour being analysed and financially exploited by Google.
Again, you're inventing problems which don't exist.
I would like to find a way to access the WHOLE internet, without using Google. ...
You don't seem to be paying attention to the knowledgeable people who have answered your questions. There's nothing wrong with BIND, nothing wrong with the DNS name that you're, er, harping on about, there's no conspiracy, and (!) you don't have to involve Google if you don't want to. You've simply borked your own setup by using broken forwarders which you didn't need to use to begin with. You created your problems. Here's one of my BIND installations resolving the name that you're having trouble with: $ dig +short covid19booster.healthservice.ie hse-self-referral.swiftqueue.com. 52.50.21.250 52.214.178.78 It Works For Me, I can browse to the location, but I try not to get in the nameserver's way (and I had my booster a couple of months ago...) For some amusement and education try dig +trace covid19booster.healthservice.ie and spend some quality time with the BIND documentation. -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
