Using your ISP's DNS, or even worse, Google DNS, can break things. Don't use these, or Cloudflare's DNS.

Someone here posted that they had trouble viewing archive.today links, the cause seems to be Google DNS. I can't remember who posted that information, but thank you.

I'm currently using OpenDNS with a handful of others as alternates. Things broken immediately resumed operation.

Another note, if you are not using something like dns over https, all dns queries are sent in "cleartext" and unencrypted. As such, anyone between you and the DNS server can see the client that is requesting and what they are requesting.
