Google and others rarely ever mention DNS/DNSSEC, even though just as much information is being sent insecurely in the form of DNS queries/responses.

Check if you already have it enabled (unlikely if this is the first time you're learning about this) http://test.dnssec-or-not.com/

Is this working for everyone else? I get a "server not found" message.

http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/http://test.dnssec-or-not... tells me that the server is up.

working fine here

there are others to check if you have it (I'm pretty sure you won't unless you have explicitly set it up yourself)

google 'DNSSEC test'

btw setting up DNSCrypt-proxy takes all of 10 minutes on Windows
