> Bunny DNS no longer charges for DNS queries

I've owned domains for ~20 years... I'm okay for paying for the domain, I'm okay with some of that money being used to maintain the DNS servers... I've never had a company charge for queries. Why would they do that?

Well, AWS is an example of provide who does charges for it, starting at $0.4/million queries...

Serving static records with reasonable TTLs (so you get caching) is pretty much always free.

Dynamic, geo routed, load balanced low TTL queries tend to have a fee.

GeoDNS often isn't free.
