// how isitdns reads it

The resolver board measures one rung continuously: does the resolver answer over DoT, how fast, and did it set the DNSSEC ad flag.

A strike opens after two degraded rounds in a row, unless the newest reading inside 4 minutes from a seat on a different network says that resolver is healthy.

We never claim to see the whole internet. We see what we watch, from where we watch it, and right now that is one seat.

// ask DNS itself

The same reading answers over DNS. One TXT record per resolver, written into the isitdns.net zone every 3 minutes:

$ dig +short cleanbrowsing-family.isitdns.net TXT

It answers with the resolver id, its state, latency, whether it validated DNSSEC, and when the sample was taken. For the whole board in one line, ask dig +short help.isitdns.net TXT.
