For years I've used Google's public DNS service. It's famous IP address is 8.8.8.8. It's a resolves addresses faster that my internet provider.
Yesterday Cloudflare launched their DNS service which promises to be faster and better for your privacy. It has an awesome IP address: 1.1.1.1. Here are some benchmarks.
Unfortunately, by default, DNS is usually slow and insecure. Your ISP, and anyone else listening in on the Internet, can see every site you visit and every app you use — even if their content is encrypted. Creepily, some DNS providers sell data about your Internet activity or use it target you with ads. We think that’s gross. If you do too, now there’s an alternative: 1.1.1.1
