I present an alternative way to use Pi-hole outside the home network by leveraging Encrypted DNS (aka DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-HTTPS) instead of the usual VPN.
Fortunately I set up unbound ages ago, and disabled every other upstream option in my pi.hole. However, I imagine that still “leaks” some information about my DNS queries, just indirectly – it’s not like my pi.hole has every domain mapped all the time!
