| unbound essentially turns your local pi-hole dns erver into a recursive dns server. see this for refrence: [[https://social.dnsmadeeasy.com/blog/authoritative-vs-recursive-dns-servers-whats-the-difference/#:~:text=Authoritative name servers store DNS,for storing the domain's records]]. what this means is your dns request come directly from your pi-hole, not through your ISP. this is good for several reasons, primary privacy and speed (although it can be slightly slower at first). instead of your pi-hole forwarding its request upstream to open dns or cloudflare, it is getting its info directly from the root servers. this also minimizes the chance of something like a dns malware attack, that while rare, does happen to ISP's sometimes. | unbound essentially turns your local pi-hole dns erver into a recursive dns server. see this for refrence: [[https://social.dnsmadeeasy.com/blog/authoritative-vs-recursive-dns-servers-whats-the-difference/#:~:text=Authoritative name servers store DNS,for storing the domain's records]]. \\ |
