I found out today that I can change my dns to acces 1337.to again. My ISP was blocking it. However, it works on chrome, but not on firefox. Why doesn't it work on firefox?

That seems as a weird decision by Firefox considering their relatively privacy focused image.

Not really as hiding dns alone doesn't give you a big increase in privacy. Your isp can see what sites you visit immediately after anyway.

It could be argued that sending all your dns requests to a 3rd party by default is actually a decrease in privacy.

Yeah hiding DNS queries is just one part of the equation. It has to be coupled with other techs/techniques to really achieve privacy.

1.https does not mean more private. for regular browsing it does not matter 2. it is always good to have 2 browsers or use containers to seperate personal and regular stuff
