    The purpose of "private DNS" is to keep the host names private you use when using Android. With private DNS only the DNS server name is queried so unless you use a custom DNS server that is only used by you there is no privacy issue. Commented Jan 30, 2023 at 13:00
  • if the standard dns query is man-in-the-middle hijacked, the entire ensuing private dns connection can also be hijacked, thus i claim it defeats the purpose! But i've edited that out now because it's aside from the point of my question. Commented Jan 31, 2023 at 9:38
