DNS Resolver Quad9 Wins Pirate Site Blocking Appeal Against Sony

That's a super tenuous connection. Having their name listed as a partner of a cyber alliance doesnt mean much.

Quad9 is entirely subject to Swiss privacy law, and the Swiss government extends that protection of the law to Quad9's users throughout the world, regardless of citizenship or country of residence

They are not at all subject to City of London laws.

Got anything concrete or...?

Source? That doesn't match up with their published numbers, so I'm skeptical. Post up a source if you're going to make such an absurd claim.

Their endowment is around $100MM USD, as of 2021, which is nowhere near enough to cover their operating costs just from interest. Unless they're somehow obtaining 112% interest...

Revenue: $162.9 million (2021)

Expenses: $111.8 million (2021)

Endowment: $100 million (2021)

So you could argue that they got plenty of donations in 2021, I suppose. But that's a very different claim.

More likely, though, you're just talking out of your ass and have no idea how finances work.
