There is a substantial difference between being forced to block some sites, and choosing to block some. You know this, it's not disingenuous in the slightest.

Especially when this sets precedent and others will have to follow suit. I can choose not to use Quad9 if I don't like who they choose to block/what filters they use. That stops being a possibility when all DNS providers are forced to block anything that could be viewed as copyright infringement.

That already exists today with ISPs. Don't like it? Run your own internal resolver pointed at the root servers.

It sure does, and many dislike it ever happened which is why they're also trying to fight this. Surely you understand precedent.

Run your own internal resolver pointed at the root servers.

Any tutorials on how to do this?
