Mein ISP bietet mir für mtl. 2,49€ Onlineschutz vor Phishing-Mails, Fake-Shops und gefährlichen Webseiten an - und das ohne App und automatisch aktiv.
Sie stellen mir also quasi einfach den normalen Quad9-DNS-Server ein, den ich schon selber eingestellt habe und berechnen mir dafür 2,49€. Guter Deal

This is ridiculous. Quad9's mission is literally free DNS with malware blocking, to help collective Internet defense and threat investigation. That's all they do.

The French courts don't require perfect blocking, as long as they do a "best effort" thing and apply filters based on the IP's ASN being a French ISP (like they did for listing French users of Quad9 in their blog post)
It sucks, but it sucks less than complete "service withdrawal"

Oh wow it works lol? I guess they... artificially delay the resolution of the policy router maybe?

Bet that Quad9 "leaving France" is actually not going to happen because the whole point of doing that is because they "can't identify French traffic"
If they *do* actually cut out service here, they just prove to the courts that it was in fact entirely possible to identify it to begin with eh? 🤔
