I need to mess with my local DNS resolver for unrelated reasons. Is there a way, in 2026, to setup DNS in a federated way?

I could point to ISP DNS, or 1.1.1.1 / 8.8.8.8 / etc but those are all centralized, and are all subject to surveillance and censorship laws.

DNSSEC, etc, are something, but they rely on CAs. I mostly just want some sort of system that's outside centralized control, but that can be externally audited for trustworthiness.

Set up your own DNS server. DNS by definition is not centralized.
