> they insinuate that Google both sells and uses DNS

I don't think it's intended to say anything about Google specifically. Keep in mind that there are many other DNS services out there, and some of them are known for being pretty scummy, e.g. replacing NXDOMAIN results with "smart search" / ad pages.

Google is mentioned 13 times in this post and their resolvers 3. That's 16 total mentions of Google in their post.

I was specifically referring to the statement that Cloudflare won't sell your DNS history.
