It wouldn’t use his own, private DNS server. It would only use Google’s public server.

First result when searching for “how to change DNS on Chromebook” shows you how to do exactly that.
How to change DNS on Chromebook

Oh look! It’s exactly the same way you’d change the DNS on other Windows PCs.

But any chance to hate on google is a good thing, amirite?

Well I guess I won't have to correct you on your error, everyone else did it for me.

This is the moment that technology invented for good of humanity was weaponised for bad against the people

This is all about Orwellian control of the public by what seems like a far left globalist elite

Solution: dont use chromecast if you don't like their protocols.

Buying the product and then complaining about it does nothing.

Complaining about it and NOT buying the product would be more fruitful and less futile and most detrimental to Google.

Exactly..

heh? Why they gotta be left? Why even label them? The people in charge are neither left or right. They are the ones who created this left and right, black and white segregation.

You literally cannot avoid using Google. Simply loading this webpage uses Google as ATS downloads it's _javascript library to run the website from you guessed it... Google (as does about 99% of the internet as it's primary source for it).

I thought in capitalist free market system we have the choice to use or boycott products and services, basic supply and demand, why do people use Google and their services then complain about them.

But that's exactly the point of the last line of the OP:

If you don’t like that deal, buy it back from me and I’ll find some other video appliance that doesn’t twist my arm,” Vixie wrote publicly to Google.

He is saying he doesn't want to use their services, but when things like proprietary controls or devious 'terms and conditions' aren't known until a product is purchased, there's a problem...

No #, so at what point is capitalism controlled?
