  "textContent": "As far as I know, every application can choose its own DNS. It’s just that many of them don’t and go with the OS DNS. The OS DNS can be set under the connection settings on desktop and android, where there’s a spot to input DNS address. It seems to be respected more on android. Browsers can be set either to use encrypted DNS of your choosing or to go with OS DNS. For a browser, using the OS DNS is set in the same place you would set secure DNS.\n\nUltimately DNS is NOT a reliable filtering method unless it’s going through a second device that will reroute the DNS. Don’t rely on it for anything critical.\n\nIf it’s a browser, you should probably just use secure DNS.",
