    Right, I understand all that but I still can’t figure out why DNS is going to a 14 Eyes country instead of staying in Switzerland.

      If it was a simple geoip lookup that isn’t really reliable wrt anycast addresses (or even addresses in general).

      9.9.9.9 for example gets reported as Berkely, CA (US). Which is only partially accurate, for complicated business holding and ASN reasons, but is not representative of what DNS PoP you’re actually using at any given time.
