Is there going to be an option in FF to select which “trusted partner” to use? And an option to use a provider not in their list?

Is there going to be an option in FF to select which “trusted partner” to use? And an option to use a provider not in their list?
- fiysp 7y agoThere already is in advanced network options I think?
- thayne 7y agoyes. And "trusted partner" just means they have preconfigured settings in the drop down. It's also possible to specify a custom DoH provider (or disable DoH).
- giancarlostoro 7y agoOr an option to randomize it per request with the ability to remove / blacklist specific partners. Now that would be great.
- kardos 7y agoNot sure that randomizing is going to do anything useful. Randomizing over three providers will give each of them one third of your requests, but they would just need more time to get a (near) complete list of the domains you resolve. Eg, if you resolve hackernews once a day, they'll each have that information in approximately three days.
- tomatocracy 7y agoYou could deal with this by splitting requests based on the domain to be looked up on a deterministic basis, so that the same lookups always go to the same server. You'd ideally do that in such a way that related lookups (eg everything under google.com and all of Google's other related domains) also go to the same server.
