DNS over HTTPS (DoH) is now fully supported on the CleanBrowsing network. This modern protocol encrypts DNS traffic using HTTPS, enhancing privacy and preventing DNS hijacking and ISP surveillance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike traditional DNS, which sends queries in plain text, DoH wraps DNS requests inside secure HTTPS traffic. This protects your browsing activity from being intercepted, modified, or monitored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
