22 Oct 2026, 10:32 PMHacker News7.2 Quad9 to exit France

Quad9 will stop offering its free recursive DNS service to users in France on November 24, after a French court ruled in favor of beIN and required Quad9 to block DNS resolution for domain names linked to alleged sports broadcast copyright infringement. The court reduced the penalty from €580,000 to €1,000 per day, but Quad9 says compliance is technically unfeasible and conflicts with its neutral-DNS mission.

Why: If you use Quad9's 9.9.9.9 or 149.112.112.112, or run products/VPNs for French users that depend on it, plan a resolver fallback before November 24. The ruling also shows a court can force a public resolver to alter DNS answers by jurisdiction, so don't assume DNS resolution is globally uniform.
