You personally make a many DNS queries as a full-blown ISP? The fact that your server does it's own caching may keep your query rate lower than others.

I'm sure they can refuse service to customers in certain cases.

No, I wouldn't make anywhere near that number of DNS requests, but the setup would be the same - a caching, forwarding nameserver doing a MITM between my networks and nextDNS.

So I assume they allow (or, rather, can't really disallow) such a setup but I wonder what ramifications it has when someone decides to front their entire customer base behind their nextDNS acount ...

I'd assume they would just ask them to stop.
