Your home internet has a privacy problem! DNS, or Domain Name System, is the lookup system responsible for converting human-readable domain names like google.com into IP addresses, which is the format that computers need to communicate with each other. But in this process, a LOT of data is leaked about your internet activities, and collected by all kinds of entities like ISPs and government organizations.

In this video, we’ll explain how DNS works, and how to set up your DNS to make your internet browsing far more private.

00:00 Intro
00:37 What is DNS?
01:09 How Does DNS Work?
07:02 Privacy Concerns
09:07 How to Protect DNS Queries
10:14 Quad9
13:50 How to Switch to Quad9
15:33 Conclusion

DNS privacy is a critical part of your home network security. Take 5 minutes to create more private DNS settings.
