You can still use DoH with your ISP - it's about finally encrypting DNS requests in transit

The reason why ISPs are afraid is because they know that given the choice most people wouldn't opt for ISP hosted DNS since they have a history of being abusive

Most people won't care. The coming battles are about defaults.

Mozilla's motives may be pure, but with a key press they're poised to funnel the DNS requests of hundreds of millions of users to a single entity. That's power anyway you look at it.
