<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">NMGLugers & John, Thank you, John, for the interesting discussion and pointing out the DoH changes in Firefox. I never saw the notification about the change from them. I have turned off the Doh setting on my instances of Firefox. I enjoyed the video on the "DNS Wars" which is very clear and points out the history and the interesting dynamics of this very basic service. Also interesting to visit SCale18 and see what others are doing. I have updated several usb sticks to current releases and am slowly cataloging for myself the changes. One of these is the use of snap to install the chromium-browser. This is an interesting example of delivering software as sandboxed. It is working, but takes more space and cpu. Both snap and chromium update in the background on a regular basis. <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">See some of you tonight at the Virtual meeting.

Don't forget that if you have DoH, it is bypassing your local resolver.<br>
Then, you're giving your juicy DNS data to the DoH provider rather than<br>
your ISP.<br>
<br>
One of the best videos I've seen that talks about these issues is form<br>
the Southern California Linux Expo this year:<br>

<br>
Comcast should work well, they were one of the first major ISPs to <br>
provide IPv6 for consumers. Using DHCP-PD, they'll assign a /60<br>
to you. So you can have 16 LANs running at your house -- all with<br>
addresses that aren't NATed.<br>
<br>
I haven't worked with CenturyLink's IPv6 offerings.<br>
