什么？！Mozilla 被提名英国“互联网恶棍”奖
Mozilla DoH
Mozilla Firefox 是目前最流行的浏览器之一。很多用户喜欢它胜过 Chrome 就是因为它鼓励隐私保护，并且可以通过一些选项设置让你的互联网活动尽可能地私密。


不过最近推出的功能之一 —— 仍然处于测试阶段的 [DoH (DNS-over-HTTPS)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS_over_HTTPS) 功能却受到了英国互联网服务提供商行业协会的负面评价。


英国<ruby> 互联网服务提供商行业协会 <rt>  Internet Services Providers Association </rt></ruby>（ISPA）决定将 Mozilla 列入 2019 年“互联网恶棍”奖的最终入围者名单。该奖项将在 ISPA 于 7 月 11 日在伦敦举行的颁奖典礼上进行颁发。

### 为什么说 “Mozilla” 是 “互联网恶棍”？


ISPA 在他们的声明中表示，Mozilla 因为支持了 DoH（DNS-over-HTTPS）而被视为“互联网恶棍”。

和 Mozilla 一同被列入最终入围者名单的还有欧盟《版权法第 13 条》和美国总统特朗普。ISPA 在他们的声明里是这样解释的：


**Mozilla**：因为试图推行 DNS-over-HTTPS 以绕开英国的内容过滤系统和家长监护模式，破坏了英国互联网安全准则。


**欧盟《版权法第 13 条》**：因为要求各平台使用“内容识别技术”，威胁到了线上言论自由。


**美国总统特朗普**：因为在试图保护其国家安全的过程中，为复杂的全球通信供应链带来了巨大的不确定性。


### 什么是 DNS-over-HTTPS?


你可以将 DoH 理解为，域名解析服务（DNS）的请求通过 HTTPS 连接加密传输。


传统意义上的 DNS 请求是不会被加密的，因此你的 DNS 提供商或者是互联网服务提供商（ISP）可以监视或者是控制你的浏览行为。如果没有 DoH，你很容易被 DNS 提供商强制拦截和进行内容过滤，并且你的互联网服务提供商也同样可以做到。


然而 DoH 颠覆了这一点，可以让你得到一个私密的浏览体验。


你可以研究一下 [Mozilla 是如何开展和 Cloudflare 的合作的](https://blog.nightly.mozilla.org/2018/06/01/improving-dns-privacy-in-firefox/)，并且可以自己配置一下 DoH（如果需要的话）。


### DoH 有用吗？


既有用又没有用。


当然了，从事情的一方面来看，DoH 可以帮助用户绕过 DNS 或者互联网服务提供商强制的内容过滤系统。如果说 DoH 有助于满足我们避开互联网审查的需求，那么它是一件好事情。


不过从事情的另一方面来看，如果你是一位家长，而你的孩子在 Mozilla Firefox 上使用了 DoH 的话，你就无法 [设置内容过滤器](https://itsfoss.com/how-to-block-porn-by-content-filtering-on-ubuntu/) 了。这取决于 [防火墙配置](https://itsfoss.com/set-up-firewall-gufw/) 的好坏。


DoH 可能会成为一些人绕过家长监护的手段，这可能不是一件好事。


如果我这样的说法有问题，你可以在下面的评论区纠正我。


并且，使用 DoH 就意味着你没办法使用本地 host 文件了（如果你正用它作为广告拦截或者是其它用途的话）。


### 总结


你是如何看待 DoH 的呢？它足够好吗？


你又是如何看待 ISPA 的决定的呢？你觉得他们这样的声明是不是在鼓励互联网审查和政府对网民的监控呢？


我个人觉得这个提名决定非常可笑。即使 DoH 并不是所有人都需要的那个终极功能，能够有一种保护个人隐私的选择也总不是件坏事。


在下面的评论区里发表你的看法吧。最后我想引用这么一句话：

OK
Mozilla Firefox is one of the most popular browsers available out there. A lot of users prefer it over Chrome just because it encourages privacy protection and features options to keep your Internet activity as private as possible.

But, one of the recently proposed features – ** DoH (DNS-over-HTTPS)** which is still in the testing phase didn’t receive a good response from the UK’s ISPs trade association.

So, the ISPA (Internet Services Providers Association) of UK decided to [nominate](https://www.ispa.org.uk/ispa-announces-finalists-for-2019-internet-heroes-and-villains-trump-and-mozilla-lead-the-way-as-villain-nominees/) Mozilla as one of the “Internet Villains” among the nominees for 2019. This is for an award ceremony to be held on 11th July in London by the ISP trade association of the UK.

Update – The nomination has been withdrawn

Mozilla, being included in the list of Internet Villain nominees surely gained a lot of attention. A week later – ISPA realized that it sent the wrong message to the Internet users with their original decision. So, they decided to [withdraw Mozilla from the list of nominees of Internet Villains category](https://www.ispa.org.uk/ispa-withdraws-mozilla-internet-villain-nomination-and-category/).

## Why “Mozilla” is the “Internet Villain” here?

In their announcement, the ISPA mentioned that Mozilla is one of the Internet Villains for supporting **DoH** (DNS-over-HTTPS).

Along with Mozilla, Article 13 Copyright Directive and President Donald Trump also appear in the list. Here’s how ISPA explained in their announcement:

*Mozilla** – 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*.

*Article** 13 Copyright Directive** – for threatening freedom of expression online by requiring ‘content recognition technologies’ across platforms*

*President Donald Trump** – for causing a huge amount of uncertainty across the complex, global telecommunications supply chain in the course of trying to protect national security*

## What is DNS-over-HTTPS?

DoH basically means that your DNS requests will be encrypted over an HTTPS connection.

Traditionally, the DNS requests are unencrypted and your DNS provider or the ISP can monitor/control your browsing activity. Without DoH, you can easily enforce blocking/content filtering through your DNS provider or the ISP can do that when they want.

However, DoH completely takes that out of the equation and hence, you get a private browsing experience.

You can explore[ how Mozilla implements this partnering with Cloudflare](https://blog.nightly.mozilla.org/2018/06/01/improving-dns-privacy-in-firefox/) and set it up for yourself if you want.

## Is DoH helpful?

Yes and no.

Of course, on one side of the coin, it lets user bypass any content filters enforced by the DNS or the ISPs. So, it is a good thing that we want to put a stop to Internet censorship and DoH helps us with that.

But, on the other side, if you are a parent, you can no longer [set content filters](https://itsfoss.com/how-to-block-porn-by-content-filtering-on-ubuntu/) if your kid utilizes DoH on Mozilla Firefox. It depends on how good/bad the [firewall is configured](https://itsfoss.com/set-up-firewall-gufw/).

But potentially DoH is a solution for some to bypass parental controls, which could be a bad thing.

Correct me if I’m wrong here – in the comments below.

Also, using DoH means that you can no longer use the local host file (in case you are using it for ad blocking or something else)

## Wrapping Up

What do you think about DoH in general? Is it good enough?

And, what’s your take on ISPA’s decision? Do you think that they are encouraging Internet censorship and government monitoring on netizens with this kind of announcement?

Personally, I find it hilarious. Even if DoH isn’t the ultimate feature that everyone wants, it is always good to have an option to protect your privacy in some way.
