Return IP to client for a dynamically created temporary web page that shows a Ticketmaster.com ad with a countdown of 10 seconds and javascript redirect to the actual taylorswift.com IP
I think they wouldn’t do that, since they could do the redirect within Chrome itself. The only reason they would do this is to grab users on other browsers, but that would mean everyone else stopping to use Google DNS, which means less data to collect or sell.
Google is way ahead of you, they are a certificate authority now, so in theory they can do this right now. Take a look at any site’s https certificate and a significant portion of them are now signed by Google Trust Services LLC thanks to Cloudflare using them to generate free https certificates (in addition to letsencrypt). Note that they won’t ever pull this trick though because it’ll irreversibly damage their reputation.
DoH and DoT, originally developed to prevent ISP to tamper with DNS query to inject ads, now ironically used by advertisers to evade DNS-based blocking on their ads sdk and iot devices.
Can we just sunset google altogether
don’t forget alphabet, otherwise they just sunset google to launch gogol or some shit
How long until they change 8.8.8.8 and break half the internet
I’m just waiting for them to figure out how to inject ads into DNS.
I think they could 🤔
It would be trivially easy.

But, HTTPS certificates.
Unless they provided overrides for their ads in Chrome, but at that point why do it with DNS.

It’s too big to fail now. Advertisers hardcore it into their apps and iot devices to evade DNS adblockers for a while now.
Joke’s on them, I block Google DNS in my router, and a bunch of DoH servers (fuck I hate DoH).
