As a long time Charter/Spectrum customer (yay local monopolies) who’s toyed with my network a bit, I have heard about some of their network shenanigans, but they don’t seem to have hit my area. Guess I’m surprised it’d be defeated by something a simple as dns servers, and the MITM of it all if they’re redirecting traffic is terrifying, what with https and all.

Certainly you can change your dns server on nearly any phone.

I see where I can change DNS for WiFi in iOS settings, but cellular requires an app. It sounds like VPN without the security? If Verizon is throttling, would that be circumvented by a VPN connection?
