> Devices you paid for, but don't actually own, will end-run your efforts by using their own hard-coded DNS servers.
Not just devices, Jetbrains software has hardcoded DNS too. I've had to resort to blocking its traffic entirely because of the sheer number of servers and ports it tries in order to work around my DNS blocking, now I allow traffic only during license/update checks. I'm sure other large vendors do something similar.
