DoH and DoT

A&A run DNS over HTTPS (DoT) and DNS over TLS (DoT) resolves. There is information here: https://aa.net.uk/dns which includes information on privacy and the terms and conditions.

As of September 2019, this is considered a 'trial' service, but is expected to continue and be an 'official' service for customers.

Using DOH with curl

Note: curl version 7.62.0 or above is required, here's an example:

curl --doh-url https://dns.aa.net.uk/dns-query https://www.aa.net.uk

This will download the www.aa.net.uk webpage but would have used the DOH server to resolve the DNS.
