What convo
Exactly
I just want Google Loon to become a thing so I can finally have decent interne
Google Loon?
giant air balloons that supply free internet 0-0
Remember though that Google loves tracking your every move. Internet use through Google would be spied on and documented.
i don't care, it's free XD
It's why I use OpenDNS instead of Google's DNS.
Both are way, way better than your ISP's DNS would be.
But OpenDNS wouldn't record everything you do like Google's.
OpenDNS?
Primiarly Google uses its tracking to target ads to you.
checking it out now
Short version is to just log into your router and enter these three IPs into the DNS fields:
```
208.67.220.220, 208.67.222.222, and 208.67.222.220
```
hmm. good info to know. i'll look more into this
By default your router uses the DNS provided to you by your ISP. It's terrible. Most ISPs have extremely poor quality DNS.
jeez. good to know. I'll take what i can get to increase both security and speed
That's why Cisco bought it out, because it was so much better.
clearly XD
Google's own DNS is really just as good, but no one likes to use it because Google will track everything you do.
Businesses don't like that because it makes it too easy for confidential data to be stolen.
obviously.
OpenDNS is a good choice but in my option not the best OpenNIC I think is a lot better
As long as it's not Google DNS.
repizon is a twink
True but if you don't care about privacy of someone watching you (like nearly everyone that uses facebook and that shit) then google is a pretty good choice
That could be suitable for things like game consoles, or other small portable systems.
Or a smartphone
True but to change DNS settings you have to jump through hoops and bonds so most people can't give a fuck even on game consoles
At your home, you just have to do it once. On the router and then everything connected to it will use it.
You only have to set it manually on devices you'll bring somewhere else.
True, but my ISP (for example) made it nearly impossible to change DNS settings on the router they send and I think most ISP will go that way and not many people want to go out and buy a new one if they not going to use it
Little choice with mine. You'll sorely regret not getting your own.
For an ISP they have exceptional service. But nothing's perfect. And their flaw is that everything physical they give you, from hardware to any kind of cable, is of terrible quality.
HDMI cables they give you ***WILL***fail.
Not *might*, they ***will***
