Users of pirate IPTV services in Sweden are actively trying to circumvent new ISP blockades ordered by Stockholm's Patent and Market Court. The court sided with rightsholders Viaplay, TV4, and Discovery, requiring Telenor and other ISPs to block subscriber access to pirate IPTV providers. This triggered a cat and mouse game that will likely intensify the call for broader blocking measures.
I’ve used Unbound for years but recently had to switch to Blocky for some weird reason. It turned out to be way, way faster than Unbound.
As a bonus, blocking thousands of advertising and tracking domains is much easier with Blocky (if you’re into that).
Blocky doesn’t appear to be a Recursive DNS resolver? It seems to still rely on upstream providers whereas Unbound directly communicates with the root distributors for the domains you lookup.
