Caveats

After starting dnscrypt-proxy, you will need to point your local DNS server to 127.0.0.1. You can do this by going to System Preferences > "Network" and clicking the "Advanced..." button for your interface. You will see a "DNS" tab where you can click "+" and enter 127.0.0.1 in the "DNS Servers" section. By default, dnscrypt-proxy runs on localhost (127.0.0.1), port 53, balancing traffic across a set of resolvers. If you would like to change these settings, you will have to edit the configuration file: $HOMEBREW_PREFIX/etc/dnscrypt-proxy.toml To check that dnscrypt-proxy is working correctly, open Terminal and enter the following command. Replace en1 with whatever network interface you're using: sudo tcpdump -i en1 -vvv 'port 443' You should see a line in the result that looks like this: resolver.dnscrypt.info
