In this particular case, the ISPs db entry could simply be "customer visited either wikipedia.org or minjiexin.com", and that would be practically as good as before DoH.
Or the ISPs database could simply be of IP addresses connected to, and the purchaser of that database could apply identification based on which other IPs were connected to around a similar time.
If it's your argument that mapping IPs to "websites visited" is not 100% accurate, then of course you're correct... So what we need to do is figure out how accurate it is. Because if the answer to that question is 95%, then the whole value proposition of DoH flys out of the window. Why massively centralise DNS to just make a tiny dent in the problem?
If the answer to that question is 5% rather than 95%, then I guess that would mean we've centralised the web so far already behind gatekeepers like Cloudflare+Google+AWS+Microsoft, that it doesn't really matter if we go and centralise DNS for web usage in the same way, as the web is already fucked.
