Mullvad shuts down its public encrypted DNS servers and will fund Quad9

Infrastructure confirmed

  • Sources: primary, discussion
  • Summary: The public encrypted DNS endpoints stop working on 2026-11-02. Default Mullvad Browser installs migrate automatically, and customized DoH settings do not.
  • Why it matters: Anyone who hardcoded the Mullvad DoH endpoints outside the VPN, including in iOS and macOS configuration profiles, has to repoint before the cutoff.
  • Follow-up: Confirm the endpoints stop resolving on 2026-11-02.
