DNS Over TLS ~ Meet Stubby - S3xySmurf - 11-01-2017
'Stubby' is an application that acts as a local DNS Privacy stub resolver (using DNS-over-TLS). Stubby encrypts DNS queries sent from a client machine (desktop or laptop) to a DNS Privacy resolver increasing end user privacy.
Key Features:
- Runs as a daemon listening on the loopback addresses (127.0.0.1, ::0)
- Sends all outgoing DNS queries received on those addresses out over TLS
- Uses a default configuration which provides Strict Privacy and uses a subset of the available DNS Privacy servers
Stubby uses getdns, it is recommended to use the 1.1.3 release or later of getdns, and preferably the latest getdns stable release.

Google is expected to implement this into the newest version of Android and this will add another layer of security if your using TOR in my opinion, the fact that its open source is amazing.
