DoH disabled by default in Firefox
Contributed by Paul 'WEiRD' de Weerd on 2019-09-11 from the put-your-names-in-the-crypt dept.
On Monday, Otto (otto@) committed a small but significant change to the Firefox port.
Date: Mon, 9 Sep 2019 12:50:35 -0600 (MDT) From: Otto Moerbeek <otto@[elided]> To: [email protected] Subject: CVS: cvs.openbsd.org: ports Sender: [email protected] CVSROOT: /cvs Module name: ports Changes by: [email protected] 2019/09/09 12:50:35 Modified files: www/mozilla-firefox: Makefile www/mozilla-firefox/files: all-openbsd.js Log message: Disable DoH by default. While encrypting DNS might be a good thing, sending all DNS traffic to Cloudflare by default is not a good idea. Applications should respect OS configured settings. The DoH settings still can be overriden if needed. ok landry@ job@
If you are running your own DNS over HTTPS (DoH) server, you may want to point Firefox at it using the network.trr.uri configuration option in about:config, and overriding the network.trr.mode setting that Otto changed to 5 in this commit to 3.
For more details on how to configure Firefox's use of DoH, please see their wiki.
