Re: Why use a third party DNS?

What's the advantage of using a third party DNS over the default one?

It is a little more difficult for your ISP to track your internet history. It also makes it a lot more difficult (nearly impossible with the correct security) for your ISP to alter the results and block traffic to websites it doesn't want you to visit.
