    Yes, all CDN's use DNS lookups for geo targeting and balancing purposes. You'll just pointlessly cripple a lot of your internet access.

    They're nothing to do with Verizon, and are only maintained as a legacy courtesy. They shouldn't be used as a production DNS service.

    The fastest dns is nearly always your providers as its internal on their network, as long as it's working ok it's what you should use. There's no point having dns on the other side of the world. I have a decent router that caches dns, makes a nice difference on sites you visit regularly. I also can't live without adblock, pages resolve quicker when you've no ads to lookup and open.
