That's because they're not your devices. As soon as certificate pinning for DNS-over-HTTPS becomes commonplace in consumer electronics filtering traffic by way of MiTM'ing name resolution will be completely game-over. You are an evil nation state actor trying to subvert the privacy of your people, per the DNS-over-HTTPS threat model.
I assume manufacturers are just going to stick 5G chipsets into things to get around user control anyway.

- tomjen3 5y agoAt which point, why do you buy the devices?
- EvanAnderson 5y agoI don't. I wish a lot of consumers wouldn't but they don't know any better (and probably don't care).
- tomjen3 5y agoI think they do care, otherwise Apple wouldn't make privacy such a big selling point.
