DNSCrypt-proxy provides local service which can be used directly
as your local resolver or as a DNS forwarder, encrypting requests
using the DNSCrypt protocol and passing them to an upstream server,
by default OpenDNS who run this on their resolvers.
The DNSCrypt protocol is very similar to DNSCurve, but focuses on
securing communications between a client and its first-level resolver.
While not providing end-to-end security, it protects the local
network, which is often the weakest point of the chain, against
man-in-the-middle attacks. It also provides some confidentiality to
DNS queries.
