By taking a control over DNS, Google usurps the power and makes the open web a walled corporate franchise of its own.
In other words, Google steals the open web from the world. It injects a proprietary Trojan horse in disguise of security and established a total dictating power, deciding on what can be published on the web and what cannot.
The choice of timing speaks by itself as well. A pandemic is a great mud water to pull the trick like that.
Didn't you get enough stories about unwarranted pullouts of apps from Google Store? Website pullouts are the subject of the nearest future if we allow that to happen.
The community should boycott centralized DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) approach as it clearly stays in the way of Open Internet was originally designed. DoH leads to a totally centralized, usurped, greed-driven future controlled by a single corporate entity.
This should also bring the closest attention of anti-monopoly committees around the world.
I know that not all people can grasp the danger DoH brings today, but this is a very dangerous development that may lead to disastrous consequences for communities around the world. Internet as we know it may just die.
