Oh, interesting! I did not know it is a default now. I can imagine why they would enable it by default, but when Cloudflare (which I assume is the default DoH provider) has a problem at some point everyone is doomed.

Really wish they also could make it so the data collection part is opt-in instead of opt-out (which at this point in time appears to be the actual cause of this problem).

Here it was using NextDNS by default (or at least I cannot remember ever changing it), so I guess they are distributing the possible failure a bit. But still, I wasn't comfortable with Firefox dictating which DNS service to use, which is why I disabled it on my main machine.
