Trump was the straw that broke the camels back for me too. I got off Facebook in 2012 and went back to promote my bands. When people start protecting and funding pedophiles and fascists, I'm checking out. It's a lifestyle change for sure, but I regret nothing. I'll take my $900 mid-grade Fairphone without the bells and whistles and be happy.
I got a OpenWRT router and some servers I have not set up yet. Bought a few Pis last night to host Pi Holes too. Just wish I had local buddies to nerd with and make our own internet with antennas and tell these fascists to get fucked and host it all myself. I still can but am lonely without nerd friends. People I know never know the meanings of the words I use so I quit trying and just learn on my own.
So I was using pihole with unbound, unbound was pointed at CIRA. So I thought my my stuff was secure, @randombullet@programming.dev pointed some things out to me so I spent some time trying to learn what ODoH was and a few minutes learning that unbound does not support ODoH, it does not support DoH, but it does support DoT. DNS over HTTPS was not new to me so I did not need to spend time learning what it was but unbound does not support it, DNS over TLS was new to me but unbound does support it. As a Canadian who has three different static IP addresses and currently 2 different .ca domains CIRA knows stuff about me but I am currently still cool with their up to 24 hour logging of my DNS requests, it is just my ISP knowing that I do not use port 80 or 443 for out going stuff as all my DNS requests go out through port 853.
