I also see DNS as an obstacle that can be used for censoring.
Yes. Absolutely
CDN/DNS are all "middle mile" technologies and serve as "invisible choke points" and is why I started this thread.
We need a cooperatively owned/operated de-centralized/distributed CDN/DNS.
https://www.opennic.org/ is the best project I'm aware of in the DNS space.

Thank you for sharing. I wasn't aware of an open dns initiative. The amount of innovation being enabled by technology in the self sovereignty space is amazing, so I hope/think these innovations will arrive over time. I was aware of DNS being a risk, but didn't think about CDNs. Good to know.
