Depends on your threat model: ISPs, Big Tech companies, State-level actors,
random hacker at the same Wi-Fi network. The problem with DoH is that
software developer picks the threat model he or she thinks is most
relevant, and applies to all use cases.

Solution is to ask user what is the user threat model and apply it. DoH/DoT
are not harmful per se, their indiscriminate usage is.
