Sure, but you're still going to need to use an upstream DNS provider.
No you don't. You just need Internet access and an updated hints file so you can find the root servers.
One of the purposes of the DNS is to be self-sufficient.
You're absolutely right. I was thinking of a solution like a Pi-hole. You could run your own without an upstream provider and just ne keep the hints file updated. Now I kinda want to do that.
I want you to also! If you run into problems, I'm happy to help. We need more people conversant with DNS!
