Re: D'oH III: In 3-D! Plot Twist from Google/Chrome, Vixie approves?

The difference is that Chrome won't use resolvers other than the ones
you've configured yourself, and will simply opportunistically upgrade to
DoH if they detect that those resolvers support it.

In other words, there is no usurpation of administrative intent.

I don't think that change addresses *my* distaste for DoH, as discussed in
last month's 100-poster.  :-)

TL;DR: they (Chrome) won't enable DoH unless it's being run from an
internet
which they know supports it; there are apparently a list of 8-12 ISPs/etc
which are announcing such support.
