Lot of creative commands here
Let's use
systemctl status systemd-resolved to check status of the service instead.
On Linux Mint 18.x is shows it is installed but disabled and inactive:
Code: Select all
● systemd-resolved.service - Network Name Resolution
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/systemd-resolved.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
Docs: man:systemd-resolved.service(8)
On LMDE 2 you'll get a response that shows you're not using systemd.
Code: Select all
Failed to get D-Bus connection: Unknown error -1
Even if you had enabled it on Linux Mint 18.x or installed systemd on LMDE 2 and enabled it, I think like Spearmint2 said you're fine in your own home as you're using your ISP's DNS. Whether you're using systemd-resolved or not, when you take you devices out of your home to some public network that's is where the risks are. You should be using a VPN when you connect your devices to public networks.
