This might be a stupid question for someone who is not technical, but what is the use of using a DNS server such as Quad9 for home use? Does it help with privacy? If so, how does it do that?
I tried to google around but all the articles are fairly technical.

For additional privacy and security, there are many ways to send your DNS queries encrypted to Quad9 in various devices so they cannot be logged/tampered with by your ISP or any network in between you and Quad9:
