That's what I use, but I have my own custom list of servers, the dnscrypt-proxy automatically checks them all for the best ping, and load balances between them, plus of course, one goes down, another one immediately takes it's place.
It also anonymizes the queries by splitting said query between 2 servers (you have to set that up manually)
Consumer routers/switches have a lot of different brands. Netgear, Linksys, ASUS etc. Some of these companies are US based but all of their devices are made (assembled) in China or Taiwan. The chips inside them are all made in various places around the world, but mostly China.
The big routers/devices that most (not all) of the internet runs on are made by Cisco. Cisco is an American multi-national company but a vast majority (if not all by now) of their products are made in China and software that runs on their hardware (Cisco IOS) is proprietary to Cisco.
Fun tidbit, in Georgia after the election in 2020 people were hanging around at the back of some building telling the world that boxes with 'Cisco' and 'China' written on it were coming out the back into random trucks. Like everything else when you buy a product the box had Made in China stamped on it.
Top item there right now is "Flying J, Pilot, and all of their subsidiaries have been told that the next shipment of gas will be their last shipment, and to shut the pumps off when they reach 10 percent. Secondary confirmation said Cenex, which is not associated with Flying J/Pilot got the same message." so that's a bit wtf.
Eh, taking out DNS servers is easy to circumvent, there are thousands(or at least hundreds) of independently hosted DNS servers people could use
I don't think that would be their angle, too weak.
You should take a look at DNScrypt
here's a list of public resolvers for it
So as you can see, there's plenty.

Then there's openNIC
So yeah, might work for the low grade sheep, but I bet most of them will have someone with tech knowhow that would sort them out without much trouble.
Aren’t all the routers made by ONE company??

Well, then set it up :P
Mine already is, I have the lists saved offline.
I know of two sites that are telling people to bookmark the ip address already.
