Re: DNSCrypt for Windows - Work on FiOS?

said by mnl1121:

I don't think Verizon can manipulate DNS requests to alternate servers.

VZ does in fact manipulate DNS responses.

If you lookup a non-existent domain, VZ's DNS servers will return a VZ hosted search page instead of correctly returning a 404 error. You can disable that behavior by changing the last octet of the DNS server address from .12 to .14 (or by using another DNS provider such as OpenDNS).

Yeah, but I meant if your using OpenDNS servers VZ doesn't manipulate DNS requests/responses. Or am I mistaken?
