(via Google Unveils DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) Plan, Mozilla's Faces Criticism)

For those unfamiliar with DoH, it allows DNS resolution to be conducted over encrypted HTTPS connections rather than through the normal plain text DNS lookups.

As some countries and ISPs block connection to sites by monitoring DNS traffic, DoH will allow users to bypass censorship, possible spoofing attacks, and to increase privacy as their DNS requests cannot be as easily monitored...

How to set up manual IPv6 in Windows 11

The new(?) network settings menu in Windows 11 has probably the least descriptive error messages I've seen in months, especially so for IPv6. So here's some quick advice to do it:

• Address: One of the "IPv6 Address" entries in ipconfig (Not "Temporary IPv6 Address"). • Prefix length: 64. Always 64. • Gateway: Keep it blank and empty. Trust me. • DNS: I usually stick with 2a10:50c0::ad1:ff (AdGuard Non-Blocking) and 2001:4860:4860::8888 (Google). Both have automatic DoH templates. If on ≥22H2, set "Fallback to unencrypted(?)" to On just in case.

This should normally work, but may take several attempts of trial and error. If successful, the address can become de facto static for years (A certain winner for NTP Pool), contingent on routers, drivers, and ISPs not having a bad day and causing downtime.

NXDOMAIN hijacking and ISP behaviour

Something none storage related. This article at "The Register" triggered me to write this post and explain why I don't see this behaviour in my household. The trick is to configure DNS-over-HTTPS in your network. For the non-technical people who read this the title may already be an incentive to not read any further but please bear with me. Whenever you type something in your browsers address bar like erwinvanlonden.net" your computer has no idea what that means. The internet works with numbers as addresses and not names. As we as humans are extremely bad with numbers (what's your mother-in-law's phone number... now!!... too-late...:-) ) we tend to remember names much more easily. So that is why the internet folks back in the days designed some sort of "phone-book" where these domain names are translated to numbers and tell your browser to connect to that address. DNS That phonebook system is called DNS (Domain Name System) and is a distributed hierarchical list of domains from top level (.com, .net, .org) all the way down to names likes "www.what.does.this.button.do.com" (I made that up.). So when your computer does not know the number associated with that name it contacts a DNS server, and that is most often the server at your Internet Service Provider (ISP), and that server will then give your computer that number.

Guias IT-online: Como ativar o DNS over HTTPS no Windows 10 Build 19628 (vNext)

O DNS over HTTPS ou DoH, é um protocolo de rede com cerca de 2 anos que foi criado para impedir que ataques “man-in-the-middle” possam capturar e manipular dados DNS. Para isso, é usado o protocolo HTTPS para encriptar os dados entre o cliente DoH e o DNS Server baseado em DoH.

Atualmente, o DoH pode ser ativadona maioria dos browsers do mercado, sendo que no caso do Firefox o DoH vem ativado por…
