In article <20191001074011.n4xjouqg6lhsvti7 () nic fr> you write:
Note that the UK is probably the country in Europe with the biggest
use of lying DNS resolvers for censorship. No wonder that the people
who censor don't like anti-censorship techniques.

Most UK ISPs use the Internet Watch Foundation's advice intended to
block child sexual abuse material.

Circumventing it enables people to access that material.

We can shout CHILD PORNOGRAPHY just as loud as you can shout
CENSORSHIP so perhaps we should both stop now.  There are plenty of
valid reasons for a DNS resolver to block some results.
