Because it doesn't make sense. Why would they ISPs care that you are encrypting your dns requests in transit? The vast majority of people still use whatever DNS servers their ISPs tell them to use. So the ISP controls the other side of the encrypted communication, making the encryption useless for preventing them from reading it.
- 908087 9y agoI specifically said "If DNS encryption becomes more prevalent". Obviously this point becomes null if the user is using the ISP's own DNS servers. I guess I should have said, "If DNS encryption becomes more prevalent and users start taking advantage of privacy-conscious third party DNS providers". You've also chosen one very specific part of my post and used it to attempt to claim the entire post doesn't make sense. What about the rest? Even if you ignore the entire DNS-related portion of my post, there's no way you can claim that ISPs are able to access anywhere near as much data as GA/etc when users are mostly accessing encrypted sites.
