Comment (by dcf): Perhaps you saw already: Cloudflare's DNS HTTPS server sends an `Alt-Svc` that points to an onion. https://blog.cloudflare.com/welcome-hidden-resolver/ > How can the users remember this address? > > We don’t think you should need to remember this address. Ideally, all you would need to do is go to [https://tor.cloudflare-dns.com/ https://tor .cloudflare-dns.com] and have the browser route your request to the .onion address. This is possible using the "[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7838 Alt-Svc]" HTTP header which is an optional header notifying the browser that the resources can be accessed from an alternative network location, possibly using a different protocol. Thanks to [https://hacks.mozilla.org/2018/05/a-cartoon-intro-to-dns-over-https/ Mozilla], using .onion addresses as alternative services is now possible in [https://nightly.mozilla.org/ Firefox Nightly]. When I go to https://tor.cloudflare-dns.com/, I see {{{ Alt-Svc: h2="dns4torpnlfs2ifuz2s2yf3fc7rdmsbhm6rw75euj35pac6ap25zgqad.onion:443"; ma=315360000; persist=1 }}} As far as I can tell, the `Alt-Svc` header doesn't actually ''do'' anything yet in Tor Browser (maybe it does in Firefox), but there is #26365. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/21952#comment:54> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
