So, one thing I'd love to see clarified: APNIC was interested in studying the junk traffic to 1.1.1.1. Cloudflare's DNS will not log or track. So what is logged and tracked for APNIC's research purposes? Everything but DNS? Everything but DNS and HTTPS requests directly to 1.1.1.1 (presumably people looking for details on Cloudflare DNS?).

What's being studied?

Fun fact: CCNA classes regularly use 1.1.1.1 as a router-id. Really good reason now not to configure it via a loopback address.

Really hoping this question gets answered. It seemed contradictory to me.

My strong impression is that they wouldn't give APNIC any data that can be used to identify users of their DNS service, but I'd definitely love a more detailed answer than what the site currently provides.
