With my colleagues I&#x27;ve been advocating for a decoupled approach to achieve security&#x2F;privacy for network services like DNS, which we built a demo of earlier this week and wrote about a bit here -- the gist is that there&#x27;s no reason to hand over your personal stream of DNS queries to a DNS resolver because you can divide the information across multiple parties:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;invisv.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;dns.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;invisv.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;dns.html</a><p>(The timing is coincidental -- we didn&#x27;t realize Wyden was looking into this very issue and was going to issue a request for a probe into it.)

US Senator outlines the allegedly misuse of US government funds and where the contracted academic obtained their funds for the actual purchase of DNS tracking dataset from,<p>in which to (allegedly?) enable US government performing these acts of circumventing the various intra-US surveillance laws that are in place to protect US person (citizens, US-based corporations, naturalized citizens), or something to that gist of it.<p>Probably a focus on whether academic is violating contracts and depending on that, whether a federal agency is lacking oversight mechanism of these alleged transgression(s), or both.<p>Should be interesting to shine a light on this allegedly roundabout ways, given that DoT and DoH are the &quot;rage&quot;.
