You missed the point. OP is talking about app and IoT devs hard coding DoH servers into their products so that they can bypass any tracking, advertising, and privacy restrictions (aka piHole) you put in place.
- josephcsible 5y agoDevices like that could just hardcode the IP addresses of their ad servers instead, so DoH isn't really the culprit there.
- Spivak 5y agoYeah there’s nothing about DoH that a Google or any IoT device maker couldn’t have done 10 years ago if they really wanted to bypass local DNS servers.
- SilverRed 5y agoThe companies willing to do this already made their products fail to load when their ad domains could not be reached. I tried pi hole for a week and found every ad infested service would just throw an error. This also means nothing for firefox. Firefox can not use DoH and iot products can just implement it themselves.
