DoH is not as private as you think, that’s just how big tech positioned it.
DoH encrypts DNS queries between your browser and the DNS resolver, it does not hide your browsing activity from the DoH provider itself.
Google, cloudflare or any other 3rd party orgs still see your data.
I have an open source firewall on gitlab if you wanna take a look. Blocks some IPs - I know it’s not much but fuck Palantir - I made it so their site won’t load.
Blocks 50+ stalkerware apps as well as data broker trackers.
I want to go back to it so you can wire in through my VPS and build it as a mobile app to block Gemini and Apple Intelligence from scraping your photos and texts and everything to train their models.
Well how could it? Of course the DNS provider needs to know the domain you want to look up - otherwise how would they be able to look it up?
Still it would fulfill the OP's wish: He wants to hide traffic from his ISP, so if he chooses a DNS resolver other than his ISP, and encrypt transmission, goal is achieved.
