The Domain Name System (DNS) is used to resolve hostnames into IP addresses, to locate internet services, and to provide additional services that are closely bound to domain names, but in the process of doing so it leaks massive amounts of information about what a user is doing and what her interests are. This talk provides an overview of new technologies to provide privacy to the DNS, introduces privacy-preserving services that any user can run locally, and shows developers how they can incorporate DNS privacy services into their own applications.
