Since this is happening in a number of countries, it's hard to
discern exactly why 8.8.8.8 is given the exception
Possibly because some consumer equipment and software appears to have
8.8.8.8 hard-coded, ignoring local (e.g. DHCP-provided) settings. IIRC
I've seen that behavior from some (but not all) Google Home products
and
the Netflix app on various devices.
Yep, I've got 2 bauhn (Aldi) android TV's, one in bedroom and in my
office, it does honour my local DNS, however as you point out, the
netflix app does not, it uses quad8 - which I intercept at home so no
big deal :)
( Why do I intercept at home, the family has windowsy things because
they like to game, and I run malware dns blocklists
actually that is also one of the reasons I know its done around here in
enterprise and why some of the ISP's do it, as for ISP, its also an
agreed method for Federal Court ordered site blockings for copyright
infringing (iinet v movie-industry )
... I think someone wasa right, this is really a dnsops list thread :)
