Commercial parties have a bag full of tricks from fingerprinting to embeds on the page itself to track you.
Privacy seeking users are already tunneling their traffic.
That leaves script kiddies at Internet cafes. TLS kind of fixed that already so... Good work?
- MrStonedOne 6y agoAs it stated in the article, ISPs tracking and selling the data. Exactly that, no more, no less.
- alecco 6y agoYou, the proxy, and the DNS service, can be in 3 different countries. It's not bullet proof but makes it quite hard for a single government. Unless you are a Bond villain I think this is more than you need. If you need more than that use ToR or similar.
- t0astbread 6y agoWhile I agree that it's a step forward you should proxy your whole traffic anyways if you want to enjoy the benefits of encrypted DNS. Otherwise intermediaries routing your packets can still see what you connect to by looking at the IP header (or SNI, if not encrypted). DoH/DoT is still useful because it allows you to proxy your DNS over Tor (for example) without having to worry about tampering (or surveillance if you also use separate circuits per domain).
