@some_guy is there such a thing as an open source dns and encrypted DNS? Or federated DNS?
It's actually surprisingly centralized.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System#Structure
It sort if have to be. In the end there has to be one source of truth for each TLD, otherwise who is to say who owns foo.com, and what it resolves to?
And then the same structure for assigning TLD ownership.
But there is nothing stopping you from running another DNS service, call it DNS2 with different root servers, etc. It is just going to be extemely hard to convince people to use it.
They're absolutely is, it's called onion routing, get around DNS blocks with tor as long as you know where you're going.
