I found this study interesting:

"What can you learn from an IP?" https://irtf.org/anrw/2019/slides-anrw19-final44.pdf

So essentially ESNI/DoH are only useful for websites on global CDN providers? Why would Mozilla be interested in enhancing those companies profits?

Or any other shared hosting. I never mentioned global CDNs, just "cloud" (somebody else's computer with other clients) hosting.
