Latest copyright decision in Germany rejects blocking through global DNS resolvers

What this post added

This post details a German court's decision rejecting a request to block websites via public DNS resolvers like 1.1.1.1. It explains the role of DNS resolvers, distinguishes public from private resolvers, and argues why blocking through public resolvers is ineffective, disproportionate, and lacks transparency. The decision highlights that DNS services are protected by the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA) as 'mere conduit' services, reinforcing Cloudflare's position.
