Can I use a VPN to encrypt DNS requests?

Asked 2 years ago

Hello. After hearing that there are ISPs that use DNS Hijacking to collect information on its users, I am looking for ways to encrypt my DNS requests. Does anyone know if using a VPN is effective for encrypting DNS requests thereby preventing DNS Hijacking? TYIA.

When using a VPN, your DNS requests will be encrypted. This means that your ISP or other third parties won't be able to see which sites you visit or what information you send over the web. Therefore, a VPN can encrypt DNS requests, provided it has the built-in feature. If you want complete encryption of DNS requests, try to go for the "Full Tunnel" encryption protocol VPN service such as IP Vanish.
