Private, Secure & Uncensored DNS — for Everyone

Fast, encrypted DNS resolvers operated independently in more than 100 locations worldwide.

Because your DNS traffic should belong to you, not your ISP, your government, or third-party trackers.

Why Encrypted DNS Matters

Every time you visit a website, your device asks a DNS server to translate a domain name into an IP address.
Without encryption, these DNS queries are:

  • Visible to your ISP
  • Collectable by advertisers
  • Interceptable for censorship
  • Manipulatable for phishing or redirection

Encryption fixes this.

With DNSCrypt, DNS-over-TLS (DoT) or DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH), your DNS traffic becomes:

Encrypted

Nobody can see which domains you resolve.

🕊️ Uncensored & Unfiltered

No blocking, no redirecting, no tampering.

🛡️ Secure with DNSSEC

Protection against forged or manipulated DNS responses.

What makes dnscry.pt different?

All resolvers operated by dnscry.pt follow the same principles:

  • IPv4 & IPv6 support
  • Uncensored — no filtering, no blocking
  • Fully encrypted (DNSCrypt & DoH)
  • DNSSEC validation enabled
  • No query logs — ever
  • Multiple global locations

This service exists to provide genuinely private DNS, not analytics.

Access via Tor Hidden Service

For additional privacy, censorship resistance, and anonymity, dnscry.pt is also available as an .onion hidden service:

You can access this site through the Tor Browser or any Tor-enabled client.
