This makes sense, most people from California rarely even leave their state let alone go to a different country


Japan is the second largest iOS market.


Can't wait for Google to be named "Internet Villians" like Mozilla because GCHQ got salty they can't slurp DNS traffic.


It wasn't GCHQ, it was UK ISPs:

They have (had?) a requirement to block certain sites (e.g., CP), and their CEOs could be sent to jail if they didn't. So from their perspective, Mozilla was not doing a good thing as it was causing them grief in being able to follow the law:

> for their proposed approach to introduce DNS-over-HTTPS in such a way as to bypass UK filtering obligations and parental controls, undermining internet safety standards in the UK

So yeah, I can understand why they'd be salty. As someone who works in IT I'm also salty at DoH for similar netsec reasons. (DoT is another matter.)


> It wasn't GCHQ, it was UK ISPs

With UK laws it's close enough.
