Well, my question was specifically about DNS. I don’t think that the sites or services you use have any way to know what DNS are you using.
ISP can capture DNS traffic, but this is where threat model comes into play… Like if you are concerned about some entity to collect you profile based on data from ISP which includes both your DNS queries and your IP
Well, you’re right. I was mixing a few things up in my head. My bad. Altrough I did find a few interesting ways that can be used by websites to find client side DNS, it isn’t exactly the norm or likely to hit you with custom setups.
I retract my point on DNS, but the general notion that do-it-yourself isn’t always better stays. Al be it off-topic here now.
Interesting, can you share any links regarding finding client DNS?
