Quad9, like most global DNS providers uses anycast to provide redundancy and low latency. My connection to them still terminates in Chicago. If my DNS queries are answered in the US, surely they are under some type of US Gov authority and regulation?

I think I agree with others, seems like a publicity stunt with very little real-world impact.

If your ISP is sending your queries to the US, perhaps you should ask your ISP why they're doing that?

Did you read the applicable law section of the privacy policy? And you honestly don't think that's better than US law?
