My reading of it is that the DNS request gets encrypted on the client and sent to ODNS. ODNS doesn't know how to decrypt the request so it can't see what you are looking for, just that it is you that is looking. The ODNS resolver then sends the encrypted request to the DNS resolver on your behalf, and the DNS resolver decrypts the request and services it. This meanst that the DNS resolver knows what website you are looking for, but doesn't know that it is you that is looking for it. The DNS resolver then encrypts the result and returns it to the ODNS, which then returns it to you. It is basically decoupling the identity of the requester from the domain being requested.
