I respectfully disagree, eventually they will figure something out. If you look at Monero for example it's a very good solution to exchanging value (information) in a private manner. Also there is Tor network. And I just did a search they're working on a DNS over tor project which would solve...

Whoever collects this information is highly incentivised to monetize it, not to mention privacy concerns. This is very concerning to me, I'm surprised there isn't better technology developed to handle DNS requests privately and securely in a decentralised way. I wonder if blockchain could be...

Thank you for the detailed response. Proxies are great. I heard of them before, but only just recently discovered how effective they can be to do certain things that VPNs can't. But like you say from a security perspective they're not good. You made a very good point about HTTPS traffic being...

So your answer implies that the organization that control the DoH server, wether that's ISP or other, can see the domains I have requested to resolve, correct?

I am confused about DNS over HTTPS protocol. Is there an actual benefit of using this protocol from a privacy standpoint? Can my ISP see the sites I'm visiting when I'm using DNS over HTTPS?

Wouldn't I still expose my IP and servers IP I want to visit with HTTPS? I read that HTTPS encrypts only content being transmitted, but not the domain IP

Ok, now I understand that the server I'm trying to communicate with doesn't know my real IP, but what about the ISP in this process? Does the ISP know the server I'm trying to visit? For example, I'm trying to visit facebook.com through a proxy. Facebook doesn't know my real IP, it only knows...

Thanks for clearing this up. I have a few more questions. What happens after request is sent to DNS resolver, when I'm using a proxy? Does it send the server IP back to proxy or forward my request directly to the server I'm trying to communicate thus exposing my IP? What I'm asking is, when...

I am interested in buying a proxy to hide my IP. When I'm using a proxy in a browser (not on the whole system) what happens to DNS requests? Are DNS requests going through the proxy as well, or are they being handled separately, thus exposing my IP? Does it depend on how a proxy server is...
