DNS4EU is a welcome, EU-backed public resolver launched in 2025 with free child-safety filtering. But it is not a true no-log service — it retains aggregated query data per /24 block for up to six months — and native DNS over QUIC is still on its roadmap (Knot Resolver), not available today. If you want the European values of DNS4EU plus real no-logs privacy and the newest transports right now, AEU DNS is built for exactly that.
Where AEU DNS goes further
Real no-logs, not six-month aggregates
DNS4EU stores aggregated query counts per /24 network for up to six months. AEU DNS keeps no query logs at all — nothing about who asked what is ever written to disk, so there is no six-month window to subpoena, leak or profile.
Native DNS over QUIC today, not on a roadmap
DNS over QUIC (DoQ) and DoH3 are native and live on AEU DNS right now. On DNS4EU, DoQ is still a planned Knot Resolver feature. If you want the latest, lowest-latency encrypted transport today, you already have it here.
Post-quantum by default
AEU DNS negotiates X25519MLKEM768 post-quantum key exchange, so a future quantum computer cannot decrypt today's captured traffic. It also offers Oblivious DoH and per-device mTLS — unlinking who you are from what you look up.
AEU DNS vs DNS4EU — honest comparison
DNS4EU offers valuable, free EU child-safety filtering. This table only compares the privacy and transport dimensions where the two differ.
