I trust my ISP and government more than a US company I have no formal contract with and the US government.
Also, there's the whole 'applications should not override system level settings' thing. My DHCP pushes a local (caching) DNS server that also does name resolution for internal services. This change would break that for all Firefox users on my network.
And every single intermediary and whoever else might be listening in? This is an unencrypted plaintext connection. Which is the main point here. The whole "we trust ISP more" thing is completely beside the point. The point is DNS is horribly insecure nowadays, and it is about damn time we switch to something better.

Hopefully, DoH will become a system level setting eventually.
The only thing the snooper won't be sure with is, which Cloudflare client asked for that record.
Thus, Cloudflare is the problematic intermediary.
You're not affected then, because the DoH rollout w/ Cloudflare as the default is only planned for the US.
Because if you do, at that point they are your "ISP" for purposes of this discussion. Do you still trust them more than Cloudflare?
(For a desktop machine, obviously this is not an issue, but for pretty much anyone with a laptop this is something that needs to be worried about.)
As far as internal services, is this a split-horizon setup? As far as I understand, the plan is to detect those and fall back from DoH to normal DNS as needed.
I wish Windows 10 and other operating systems natively supported DNS-over-HTTPS, but many don't. So they have to work around that lack of support.
I do not! I'd rather have that anon US co. than any government.
