I usually use DNS.watch, but I haven't been able to get through with OpenDNS, Google's DNS, Cloudflare's DNS, or my ISP's default DNS. I use the DNS specifically on my computer, not the router, but setting it on the router has no effect either.

    Google will be spying on you if you use their DNS servers. That's also one way how they find out about new sites to index, if they're not linked to from elsewhere. Use 1.1.1.1 instead, it's faster and unaffiliated and they won't spy on you.

      Unaffiliated with Google and other indexing purposes, they provide the service as an advertisement of their server capacity.
