The problem now is that I see sometime 700MB of DNS traffic for 2GB of
Internet browsing within one month.

That's an eyebrow raiser. Tunneling, antivirus (or some other database using DNS as a key+value store), CDN? IoT fleet? Then comes the inevitable "...or traffic you don't want".

Not clear on where the expensive link sits (between the caching resolver and clients, or between the caching resolver and the rest of the internet). Not sure what you're able to do politically or where things like privacy or "net neutrality" come into play, but it does seem to me that not burning precious bandwidth for ads might be a value-added service... if they're really watching cat videos.

I second the comment that Dnstap might be your best friend.

There are technical considerations, but I think generally this is veering into the realm of what's possible (which is seldom actually technical); this includes your means and ability to analyze the DNS traffic. If you want to discuss further feel free to email me.
