Even when using VPNs or Tor, DNS leaks can expose your browsing activity to ISPs and adversaries by bypassing encrypted tunnels. Modern browsers' default encrypted DNS settings might introduce new privacy risks depending on the provider. This invisible vulnerability represents a fundamental flaw in how operating systems handle domain resolution during secure sessions.

Unencrypted DNS queries expose your browsing history to ISPs, revealing everything from streaming habits to shopping patterns. Discover how a layered approach using DNS-over-TLS, AdGuard Home, and DNS-over-HTTP/3 can encrypt your data, block trackers, and even boost browsing speeds. This blueprint offers a fail-safe solution for developers and tech enthusiasts to reclaim their digital privacy.

The TLS working group has finalized Encrypted Client Hello (ECH), closing TLS 1.3's last major privacy gap by encrypting server identities during handshakes. This breakthrough leverages DNS records to hide destination servers from snoopers, but faces geopolitical friction and middlebox challenges as deployments expand.
