The point of running a local unbound is indeed to turn on DNSsec validation. After that, it's the domains' fault for not using DNSsec. But at least your own stuff won't be tampered with, because you use DNSsec on your own domains, right? Right?

:-(

Coincidentally, a bunch of free wifi stuff blocks the root key queries unbound does at startup, resulting in nothing working until you get those records in there somehow (e.g. load_cache).

I fear a future where pretty much everything is trying to hack you or doing something which is indistinguishable from the meddling of a hostile actor.

I suppose the answer is politics rather than technology: Get enough people together to make a rule against it, and at least it will become niche.

Which ISP was doing this? It's worth calling out the bad actors.

Wouldn't the list of ISPs not doing this be easier to make?
AceJohnny2•10m ago
No.

There's a difference between what you're likely referring to, where the ISP's own DNS, which most people are using by default, returning particular results, and what the author is showing here where the ISP is actively tampering with outside DNS responses to insert incorrect responses.

Until now, I was not aware of any ISP doing the latter.
