> Our trusted recursive resolver program aims to standardize requirements for three areas: limiting data collection and retention from the resolver, ensuring transparency for any data retention that does occur, and limiting any potential use of the resolver to block access or modify content.
This seems like a win overall, and I'm glad that they're pushing to build a list of trusted resolvers. It sounds like they've got some sort of contract ensuring they don't use the data, so that's a positive.
That said, given that Windows 10 is going to going to start supporting DoH natively, I'm not sure I understand the reasoning to use Mozilla's chosen DNS providers, rather than the system default.
It seems a bit like enabling a proxy or VPN by default-
Even if Mozilla trusts the proxy provider, routing traffic to unneeded third parties seems somewhat user-hostile.
