It's all bout money encapsulated by "security" marketing buzzword. Yes, DoH is an improvement over old plaintext UDP DNS. But why should I used a nobody service over Cloudflare or Google that update their databases within seconds all over the world and rarely if ever faced a downtime?

But why should I used a nobody service over Cloudflare or Google that update their databases within seconds all over the world and rarely if ever faced a downtime? It is not so straightforward as always being an improvement. For example, a user can be uniquely identified through session resumption session ID whereas with plaintext UDP behind a firewall with many others doing lookups unique identification of a user can be close to impossible.
- nif2ee 7y agoYes, that's a one more reason to trust Cloudflare and Google over a nobody service since their motives with their free DNS services (including DoH and DNS over TLS) relate more to having up-to-date synchronization, load balancing, etc.. with the servers they host themselves. Spying on users via DNS queries by Cloudflare or Google is kind of a joke that can bait only the ignorant. Cloudflare terminates TLS connections and even issues TLS certs and can "theoretically" see every sensitive data that can compromise both businesses and users and yet they are trusted by countless public companies and startups alike. The same thing if not more for Google for their own ervices or their GCP business.
