Internet group brands Mozilla ‘internet villain’ for supporting DNS privacy feature

'An industry group of internet service providers has branded Firefox
browser maker Mozilla an “internet villain” for supporting a DNS
security standard.

The U.K.’s Internet Services Providers’ Association (ISPA), the trade
group for U.K. internet service providers, nominated the browser maker
for its proposed effort to roll out the security feature, which they
say will allow users to “bypass UK filtering obligations and parental
controls, undermining internet safety standards in the UK.”

Mozilla said late last year it was planning to test DNS-over-HTTPS to
a small number of users.'
