1) seems unlikely; a 25% sample is probably quite representative.
2) that's essentially what a typical DNS provider like Cloudflare or Google DNS is: they proxy your requests back to the authoritative DNS servers, then return the response to you.
- kardos 8y ago1) Fair enough, 25% of the requests would just take ~4x as long to get a more-or-less complete sampling. So how about a revised version: shard the requests, so CloudFlare only sees A-G, Google only sees H-P, etc. 2) No argument about that. I'm considering the privacy angle. A pre-DoC proxy would know your IP but not the DNS request contents, and the DoC provider would have the request but not the original IP.
- icebraining 8y agoOh, I didn't understand (2), you mean a simple TCP proxy. Well, I guess one could already use Tor for that.
