DoH's stated goals include "prevent on-path interference in DNS
operations." i
am an on-path interferer, and "i aim to misbehave"[1]. DoH is, in that
sense,
targeted at me. i think it was wrong to do so, not morally wrong, but wrong
on
its own terms, to falsely equate all on-path interferers. parental controls
and corporate security are forms of on-path interference in DNS operations
which have a valid and moral place in our digital society. DoH could have
distinguished between edge network operators who interfere for reasons our
users and their apps are either cooperative with or unwelcome entirely. they
did not. they lumped us all together.
I might also note that the outcome of blocking such 'interference' will
likely increase the chance of successful data exfiltration by the 'unwelcome'.
Thus in fact this "privacy" protocol may one day be shown to reduce overall
privacy and security for the majority of users due to yet more data leaks.
