I'm talking about DNS and nothing else.

Okay, say, 1 year from now, somehow, 95% of internet users are sending their DNS queries to Cloudflare. What can go wrong? Malicious or not. Not rhetorical, actually curious.

Internet-wide censorship is now 1 US court order way. Compared to ... say 200,000 court orders away.

Centralizing things, makes it easy for law-makers to enforce bad policy which technology otherwise would have side-stepped.
