Your ISP Knows Every Site You Visit. Here’s How to Stop Them. (DNS encryption guide)

Описание: Did you know your ISP (Comcast, Spectrum, etc.) can see a list of every single website you visit? Even with HTTPS, your first request (the DNS query) is usually unencrypted, "shouting" who you want to visit.

In this full guide, I'll show you how to enable Encrypted DNS (Secure DNS or DNS over HTTPS) – a free setting that turns that shout into a whisper and secures your browsing on all your devices: phone, laptop, and even your router.

🛡️ My Go-To Privacy Tool: I use ProtonVPN to secure my connections and for my home lab. It's one of the few VPNs I actually trust. 👉 Check it out here: https://go.getproton.me/SH29h (Disclaimer: This is an affiliate link. If you sign up, I get a small kickback at no extra cost to you.
