It's not "much work" but it is a lot of extra risk, because after you empty someone's credit card they'll quickly find out and alert the bank, which will alert the authorities, while skimming can go undetected much

I don't know if Verizon is actively doing it, but since most providers that offer DoH have well-known IPs, like 8.8.8.8, 1.1.1.1, 9.9.9.9, they could easily just block traffic heading in that direction.
