This letter from the US service provider industry is quite something. It talks about "data competition" which implies people's data are a legit thing to sell. They also note that encrypting DNS would harm the advertising business. This is why we do not trust the US industry.https://twitter.com/BoingBoing/status/1181206454281396224 …

So denying people control over DNS and whisking off queries to a jurisdiction with weaker privacy legislation is beneficial if their network is untrustworthy? I see.
-
Yes, if your network is untrustworthy "whisking off" the queries to a trustworthy network seems like a good idea to me. Nobody is denying anyone control, what are you basing that on?

if you can't trust your upstream you need more protection than DoH pretends to give you.
-
To be brazen and add to this, if your upstream is hijacking your DNS or blocking DoT, you have serious issues that DoH won't solve and it easily interferes with local net DNS (which I doubt is solvable without the ISP also taking advantage).

See, this is what I don't get about the pro-DoH argument: why do you assume your DoH provider will treat your dns data better than your isp? The two biggest DoH providers (Google and CloudFlare) are already in the advertising business.

To me, it seems that people believe that a tech giant will threat your dns data better than your isp. I really wish I understood that rationele, because at this point, I just don't. And it feels like I'm missing something obvious here...

If you can't trust your network, DoH doesn't solve anything. VPN is better at solving that. Because right after any DNS query, encrypted or not comes another TCP/UDP connection which already gives an indication of where you're headed anyway.And the rest is traffic fingerprinting.

DoH certainly does solve something, DNS snooping. That is a problem affecting real people today. It does not solve all problems, just like HTTPS doesn't solve all problems.
