Umm idk if I put 1.1.1.1 as my DNS which root is it targeting? The one in China? Or if I put 0.0.0.0 (IP of EU run DNS server backed by EU run root) then is it still China?

There is a simpler solution rather than enforcing EU oversight over root DNSes.

Cloudflare is one of the private operators of root servers mentioned in the article so you would be using the F root server.

Hence why I said 0.0.0.0 as a root DNS created and operated by EU
