Aint all of peasant level ISPs bootstrapping unencrypted DNS requests?
Get you a fucking VPN and a good router, flash openwrt and put vpn on the router. Deny these parasites the data.
or at leas get a good VPN for your main PC and cellphone. they monitor your traffic, they sell it. you know this, act on it.
All you need to do is enable DoH or DoT to prevent the DNS hijacking and spying.
With DoH, the first request to find the https DNS resolver itself is unencrypted rendering it subject to hijacking.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's how I understand it.
You're not wrong, but you can bootstrap that request, too. It makes it more complicated, but I know NextDNS has taken steps to prevent that type of hijack with their mobile apps.
