Cloudflare announced a brand-new DNS service (please goto https://1.1.1.1 for additional information) during April Fool’s Day weekend, of course — because its launch date ties into the IP address you use to access it: 1.1.1.1. Four ones. Get it? 4/1?
Cloudflare’s DNS will offer support for both DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-HTTPS, and the company is hoping that its HTTPS support will see more browsers and operating systems support the protocol. Cloudflare’s DNS is currently sitting at a global response time of 14ms, compared to 20ms for OpenDNS and 34ms for Google’s DNS, so it’s the fastest DNS resolver for consumers.
