Using DNS4EU in North America
-
Hey gang, I'm considering using DNS4EU in Canada. My ping to their servers is ~130ms. That's way longer than anything local which is on the order of 1-5ms. Apart from resolving uncached entries taking longer, is there any contraindication to using a DNS server with high latency?
If you’re using a government run DNS, why not use the CIRA ones instead?

C-5C-2 change the calculus. I'm sure part of the push comes from the American copyright lobby. -

Can you point me to where the copyright nonsense is in the bill?

It's got some Patriot Act-y stuff in it. Look up coverage on it. -

Does DNS ping really matter unless you're making a lot of random uncached requests?

Probably not.
