Description

Apple, Cloudflare & Fastly together have come up with something called oblivious DoH. This is to decouple a single provider knowing both the DNS query and user's IP when using DoH thereby increasing user's privacy

The way it works is you connect to a proxy which in turn forwards the query to DNS resolver. This way proxy would know the user's IP address but not the query and DNS resolver would know the query but not user IP.

This seems similar to anonymized DNScrypt https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/issues/1226. Also, this doesn't prevent both proxy & DNS resolver colluding to de-anonymize users. Cloudflare have acknowledged this in their post.

Cloudflare has a Go library for oDOH https://github.com/cloudflare/odoh-go/
