Maybe because you are using a DHCP setup?

The C library and other resolver libraries look to /etc/resolv.conf for a
list of nameservers. In the simplest case, that is the file to edit to
set the list of name servers. *But note that various other programs for
dynamic configuration will be happy to overwrite your settings:*
1. The resolvconf program
2. The network-manager daemon
3. DHCP clients
