Requested behaviour Although there is an experimental implementation of DNS-over-TLS through the use of Stubby, official support coming to Pi-hole would greatly enhance the privacy aspects of the Pi-hole. DNS-over-TLS is in essence an encrypted tunnel through which the DNS-requests are send. Man-in…

[image] The-Power-Of-Dreams: So because this issue is marked closed, shall we presume DNS-over-TLS is not on the pihole roadmap? Yes and No. Yes: The DNS server in FTL is based on dnsmasq and, as such, is a DNS proxy that can either reply from its internal cache or has to forward the request…

We do care about privacy and security, neither of which can be done with a shortcut or handholding. That's where you get in to dangerous territory of having someone else do it for you and giving control of your security and privacy to other parties. That is never a good thing.

The point still stands, you may have an encrypted response for your DNS to IP but visiting that IP over a bare, unencrypted connection just exposed all the information that you had hidden.

Dont you visit the IP over a https? So DoH or DoT aren't better that nothing in any way considering security or privacy? What about a DNS resolver? so you don't relay in an intermediate DNS server like cloudflare?

They aren't our direct competitor.

IP over https doesn't do anything to hide where you are going, which is what DNS is. It tells you where to go. TLS just protects the payload from that IP. Your ISP knows that you went to Amazon, but they don't know what you bought.

I know some people that have moved to adguard home. But you are right this https://www.nextdns.io/ will probably end up eating most of your users, and it supports DoH.

There are quite a few features and advantages that nextdns.io has and pihole doesn't. People is quite excited with it in social media let's see how it evolves, is something that fits to any user since it doesn't require hardware or any expertise like pihole. I agree with you that the best would be…

How do they solve the privacy issue? Do you VPN all your traffic through them, or do they just obfuscate the DNS transaction and still leave you completely trackable and identifiable through your ISP and every server that handles your packets from your local workstation to the end server? (Hint, run…
