    At a minimum this meme maker has no idea how TLS, browsers, cookies, or DNS work.

        No, a lot will default to that, but they can’t force you to use any particular dns server. I mean they can, buts a fcc violation at that point I believe

        Never had an ISP firewall my DNS. Not sure what country you live in, but it sounds like China at that rate.

          It’s usually ISP specific.

          Some ISPs in the USA and Germany have been doing it. This is why DNS over HTTPs exists to bypass those blocks.

        How can the ISP force their dns? They can’t know where you got the destination ip from.

      TLS doesn’t encrypt the host name of the urls you are visiting and DNS traffic is insanely easy to sniff even if you aren’t using your ISPs service.
