From what I can tell, all countries covered by the GDPR heavily limit what an ISP can do with DNS queries. That covers 515M people, which is more than the populations of three mentioned countries (US, Russia and Australia) put together.

Not sure it matters, but only by a small margin is that true. 500M vs 515M.

A lot of these countries currently have laws to record years of DNS logs for future analysis by the police. Due to the abuse these countries have done in the past about it, I do not want any record personally.

That’s a very good point. In fact all of them do, because the same EU that mandates GDPR also mandates data retention, which only differs in details in member states.
