I may be wrong, but I don't believe bonjour uses RDoT or DoH. The VPNs you reference are, I think, intended to be covered by the term, so I think the definition works there. I don't think I have an opinion on whether Tor should or shouldn't be covered by the definition (although others might), so if you wanted to suggest text that excluded it I think people would consider that. I don't think container environments are included in the definition either, because in a container environment the container's resolution path is the traditional point of configuration for that type of system. Perhaps the word "traditional" is too ambiguous, and leads people to think more "historical" than "typical"? > > DaO can be configured by a user changing where a > stub resolver gets its list of recursive servers, or an application > running > RDoT or DoH to a resolver that is not the same as the resolver > configured > in the traditional location for the operating system. > >
