Google Shows Its Hand in the Latest DNS Request: Motive for the Free DNS Service is Now Laid Bare
Ars Technica reports that Google wants DNS queries to show the IP addresses of the clients requesting the domains. When Google first revealed that it was providing free DNS servers for anyone who wants to use it, I was already suspicious. They can already track most of your movements through the Internet even when we’re not at Google. With the DNS service provided free of charge, they know even more about us.
With this latest request, the other shoe drops. With information like that, Google can know not only where those who are using their DNS service is going, but also where those who are using other DNS services are going.
