Why are media people so convinced that ISPs are snooping your DNS queries and even manipulating DNS to redirect you?
https://www.howtogeek.com/your-router-is-probably-using-the-wrong-dns/ Also the assumption that a small ISP can't run DNS servers that can handle the load (it's not difficult). The only argument I can see is that Google or Cloudflare has a bigger user base and is more likely to have results cached. They never seem to offer any evidence that ISPs are actually tracking you though your DNS queries or manipulating the results, they just assume because it's technically possible, it must be happening. Throw in a little "all ISPs are evil" bias. It reminds me of all the warnings about public USB charging stations and "juice jacking" despite no actual reports of this happening.
