These are issues exacerbated by DoH, not fixed by it. DoH assists in the circumvention of security and monitoring. We block ads because they're security problems.

yes, that's the point. I understand you want to monitor traffic within your network, but forcing clients to use insecure protocols to enable network-wide monitoring means you're enabling network-wide monitoring. and that's the opposite of security.
remember that your browser traffic crosses multiple networks before it hits the website you're trying to connect to. forcing that traffic to be observable and modifiable in your own network means it will also be observable and modifiable by your ISP.
This is factually false. And represents a key part of the problem in the rollout browser vendors have designed: Browsers should not be implementing their own network stacks. It's the wrong place to begin encrypting network requests, but for the "if you're a hammer" crowd, everything looks like a nail.
If the browser respected the OS stack, the OS could decide to encrypt requests, but it isn't given the choice. If the browser respected the network it's in, the network could decide to encrypt requests at the border, but it isn't given the choice.
Browser vendors decided the right choice was to build a product purpose-built to bypass nearly every good method of restricting malware, phishing, and, oh of course, ads. Google and their ilk would happily install ransomware on every PC on the planet if it would guarantee Google Ads couldn't be blocked, and that ISPs couldn't compete with their well-established surveillance tools.
The latter is why any suggestion DoH is to protect user privacy is silly... the user's privacy was compromised by the browser application pre-encryption. They just need you to believe the ISPs are somehow a bad actor for tracking you, so that only they can track you.
Endpoint-level control is no longer possible, since ad companies are skipping the OS network stack and bringing their own. Application-level control is less efficient, and more difficult, particularly when the applications are designed by the same ad companies trying to circumvent DNS control as well. (See Manifest V3.)
