Could you explain the details why/how DNS over Https would you "not
recommend using it. It's just a way for data-mining
companies to suck up more of your private life"?

The way I understand it, it is meant to provide privacy from your ISP and
traffic observation along the way to the DNS. It should not make anything
else worse/better.

Thanks,
Tomas
