The Big DNS Privacy Debate at FOSDEM

Daniel Stenberg presented a keynote session “DNS over HTTPS – the good, the bad and the ugly” (video), Vittorio Bertola discussed “The DoH Dilemma” while Daniel, Stéphane Bortzmeyer and I formed a DNS Privacy Panel expertly moderated by Jan-Piet Mens. Secondly, Google, Firefox and Cloudflare are working on using DoH to move DNS queries from the network service provider straight onto the cloud. If Google were to colocate a DNS over HTTPS service on the IP address also used for ‘Google.com’, countries and network operators would face a Solomon’s choice if they wanted to block DoH: give up Google searches or keep DoH alive.
