CloudFlare DNS

Would there be any issues with changing the modem's DNS server to CloudFlare's 1.1.1.1? I just want to make sure that the communications with the satellite won't go crazy. Thanks.

    The next most popular (after Google's) is probably OpenDNS.  A lot of people use it.  

     

    I belive that OpenDNS also offers some customizable filtering options with "OpenDNS Home", though you don't have to do any of that and you can just use their DNS.

Thanks for the replies!
Since CloudFlare's DNS is potentially dangerous, are there any other suggestions? (Other than Google's. They have enough of my data already)

That's just the thing, "potentially". Really don't know for sure. In theory, could also be a wayward WP plugin doing this (site owner sometimes just installs stuff to try out), but that's doubtful.
