'Moves to encrypt domain name requests by Google and Mozilla are raising concerns among internet service providers and, in turn, Congress. '

'The EFF backs the use of DNS over TLS and DNS over HTTPS, saying that unencrypted DNS is the last big security gap on the internet. '
'On September 13, the Judiciary Committee sent a letter to Google, asking if it would use the encrypted data for commercial purposes. '
'It also contends that it will not force people to use encrypted DNS.On September 19, a coalition of ISPs sent a letter to Congress voicing concerns that the protocol would centralize Google as the primary DNS lookup provider, virtually shutting out competition. '
