Yes, it does that - I do witness it on my mobile devices via 1.1.1.1 apps.
Can be a blessing or a curse, especially when you look something up via Google and want to check its price quickly - you get usually non-local results and responses, all priced in $s... Fine with me though.
@krzemien
Would you mind checking something?
For me with DOH enabled my HOSTS file is ignored. I just tested again and get the same result.
I added:
to my hosts file but it's not blocked with DOH enabled.Code:0.0.0.0 www.motors.co.uk motors.co.uk
Went back to DOH disabled and Quad9 DNS and the site is blocked as it should be.
Interesting... I will do so once I move back to my laptop (currently using my PC, it does not have Cloudflare client installed).
EDIT: With WARP protocol in use all entries in hosts file (added via Spybot Anti-Beacon) are honoured and no connection is made.
Just a though: is your syntax correct?
Code:0.0.0.0 ad.doubleclick.net
Yes. Just copy and paste the line, save, then try to visit that site.
I get this:
But with DOH enabled I can visit the site, no problem. So hosts file is ignored with DOH enabled.
1453207 - Support address overrides for DoH (ala /etc/hosts)
As far as i can work out DOH should bypass the hosts file:
Does DoH support /etc/hosts? | Firefox Support Forum | Mozilla Support
Risks:
Firefox DNS-over-HTTPS | Firefox Help
This greatly effects my download speed on real files but also obviously effects speed test site as of location is not actually mines so not a nearby server.
Also stops the built in SamKnows App detect my router to run a test.
Not sure I see any benefit to my browsing speed.
Quid for quo - as they say.
I am rather boring home user so do not really care if I get 50 or 70 Mb/s - as long as I do not feel the difference (and I currently don't). But yes, speeds are a tad lower than what I would get straight from ISP without this wizardry.
My SamKnows box is connected as an orphan, not as a pass-through device as expected (their router is rather dated - does not have GBe ports - and because SamKnows refused to upgrade it for me, I decided to leave it connected that way) and continues to report normal speeds.
