Nextdns: How we made DNS both fast and private with ECS[0]

Cloudflare sends the closest city from where the request was made which ought to be sufficient to optimize for a cdn I guess? Appears that archive.is doesn't have a locus standii in this debate...

> EDNS IP subsets can be used to better geolocate responses for services that use DNS-based load balancing. However, 1.1.1.1 is delivered across Cloudflare’s entire network that today spans 180 cities. We publish the geolocation information of the IPs that we query from. That allows any network with less density than we have to properly return DNS-targeted results.

>>all requests for 7 archive.* domains are sent from Symantec USA IP

It might be that the archive.is only lies to that IP, which would explain why many users in this thread say that archive.is does resolve correctly for them with 1.1.1.1
