Since many services employ dedicated static IPs for their infrastructure, ISPs can still track your queries using conditional logic.
So even though DNS encryption improves your privacy, it cannot safeguard all your connections.

Even if your ISP is unaware of the websites you visit, they can monitor the IP addresses you connect to. If services use dedicated static IPs for their infrastructure, ISPs can still use conditional logic to track your queries. Remember that only your queries are encrypted; any data you exchange with the websites is encrypted only if you see a padlock next to the domain. DNS encryption enhances your privacy, but it cannot protect all of your connections.
Depending on your threat model, we recommend using Tor, a trustworthy VPN, or the SPN to gain additional privacy from your ISP. To enable DoH/DoT system-wide with Simplewall, you may need to install additional apps such as yogaDNS or stubby. The Portmaster on the other hand, saves you time and effort by supporting and enabling secure DNS system-wide by default, allowing you to configure your preferred DNS provider. Furthermore, the Portmaster prevents other apps from using secure DNS to connect to a different DNS provider in order to stop DNS leaks from apps. However, there may be times when you need other apps to connect to a different DNS provider, and the Portmaster can assist you with that as well.

Encrypted DNS queries allow you to bypass Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and eavesdroppers and directly resolve your requests at the DNS provider. While the ISPs or middleware can no longer easily determine the websites you browse or the apps you use, but your DNS provider definitely can. That being said, even if your ISP is uninformed of the websites you visit, they can monitor the IP addresses you connect to.

Nevertheless, you get to enjoy enhanced security by preventing threats like DNS based Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks and additional privacy from middleware. GlassWire needs extra software/setup to encrypt DNS queries, while Portmaster encrypts your DNS queries by default.
