The next step...

Will be blocking all DNS requests going outside of their networks so you will be forced to use the ISP's DNS.

Hopefully it will not come to that since I use TreeWalk DNS on our home LAN rather then Verizon's DNS resolver.

They can't block you from running a DNS server on a Linux machine from within your home network.

Sure they can. All they need to do is limit TCP port 53 access to machines within the Verizon network.

You can run any DNS resolver you want but if Verizon blocks access at the edge it will be for naught.
