Looking forward to hearing about it -- but I really do want to be able to use it with my phone ISP (Irritating Service Provider :-) and not have to switch to some specific provider. I use MVNOs (specifically, Ting Mobile now, but I'll be switching to US Mobile soon).

Also, I'd like to be able to use your DNS and NextDNS's one -- I love your security, but (particularly on mobile where I pay per byte for data!) I love that NextDNS blocks tons of ads and trackers. So much less data downloaded. So much faster internet. So much nicer too.

Thanks for doing CloudFlare! I use it for my websites, would be cool to know it's (deeply) protecting my phone too.

You can set up a Zero Trust policy with block lists and use it with the 1.1.1.1 Warp app on any platform, which provides not just DNS but VPN too. It's more sophisticated than NextDNS, the only downside is that because it's an enterprise offering, there are a ton of options and it's a bit complicated to set up.

There are built-in blocklists for malware, suspicious domains, and much more. To block ads and trackers requires uploading custom block lists, which requires manually uploading a csv file (annoyingly, limited to a maximum of 1000 entries per file).

Wow, great idea... I guess I was hoping they'd do the hard work :-) but I'll look into this.
