Cloudflare and APNIC has launched a public DNS resolver (1.1.1.1) on April 1.

Introduction

1.1.1.1 are focuses on speed and privacy for browsing the internet.

Privacy First: Guaranteed

We will never log your IP address (the way other companies identify you). And we’re not just saying that. We’ve retained KPMG to audit our systems annually to ensure that we’re doing what we say.

Frankly, we don’t want to know what you do on the Internet—it’s none of our business—and we’ve taken the technical steps to ensure we can’t.
