Just make those Google DNS servers the secondary (or primary) to your ISP's DNS in your router/gateway. That is an easy permanent fix that covers you for an ISP or Google DNS outage. [ I agree. And by the way, Google has published a specific Public DNS privacy policy that details exactly how associated data retention and destruction policies operate (and it's entirely reasonable).
