If it’s such a reasonable default, why don’t any of the public resolvers (e.g. 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8, 9.9.9.9, etc.) do so? DNS isn’t the right place to attack this, IMHO.

Are we sure that the filtering is done in the default view - I would suggest the user check to ensure they don't have a filtering service (e.g. parental controls/malware protection) turned on. In my **personal** opinion, the default view should have DNSSEC validation & no filtering; users can always optionally select additional protection services that might include DNS-based filtering as well as other mechanisms.
