Product placement
Private DNS (a setting on Android phones that uses a secure DNS connection to prevent others on your network from seeing the websites you visit) ACTS. dns.quad9.net (a hostname for a private DNS provider) ACTS. adguard.com (a hostname for a private DNS provider) ACTS. cloudflare-dns.com (a hostname for a private DNS provider) ACTS. The video shows how to configure Private DNS settings on an Android phone, which is a feature of the Android operating system itself, not a specific product. Therefore, Android is a substrate. The specific hostnames used (dns.quad9.net, dns.adguard.com, dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com) are for private DNS providers, which are services that enhance privacy and security online. These are not specific products being sold, but rather configurations for a feature. The video is demonstrating how to use a built-in Android feature with external DNS providers. The primary focus is on the Android feature, making Android the substrate.
