Hmm - why would people use those resolvers, besides being lazy in configuring a proper resolver-address.A lot of people make value judgements on the relative likelyhood of finding evil in DNS packets coming from 8.8.8.8 versus DNS packets coming from the IP address handed to you in the DHCP reply....
If it's just "some" DNS your provider hands out, I agree it's not much better as well. (But you might possibly assume your provider has less interst to spy on all your emails, your dns-queries and the like.) What imho you'll want is a reliable resolver which is as close to you as possible (and have it do DNSSEC-validation etc.). Regards, Stefan
