Or even better yet, why not join OpenNIC and help a more democratic alternative to DNS root.
Opennic should be the default DNS of everybody!

I don’t know about unbound so I can’t really compare… OpenNic is not run by for-profit corporations, which I think is a good thing.
Since OpenNIC resolvers are user-run, doesn’t that mean a bad actor could theoretically pop up at any time and log any request that goes through them?
